Hey there! Are you ready to have some fun with a tea party? Let’s learn how to set up everything we need for a special tea time with our friends!
First, we need to ask Polly to put the kettle on. The kettle is where we heat up the water for our tea. Let’s say it together:
Polly put the kettle on,
Polly put the kettle on,
Polly put the kettle on,
We’ll all have tea!
Now, we need to set the table. Let’s start with the saucers. Saucers are little plates that go under the teacups. Let’s say it together:
We will set the saucers out,
We will set the saucers out,
We will set the saucers out,
We’ll all have tea!
Next, it’s time to put the teacups on the table. Teacups are what we drink our tea from. Let’s say it together:
Time to put the teacups on,
Time to put the teacups on,
Time to put the teacups on,
We’ll all have tea!
Don’t forget the napkins and spoons! Napkins help us keep clean, and spoons are for stirring. Let’s say it together:
Now we’ll get the napkins out,
Now we’ll get the napkins out,
Now we’ll get the napkins out,
We’ll all have tea!
Time to set the spoons out,
Time to set the spoons out,
Time to set the spoons out,
We’ll all have tea!
Tea time is even more fun with some yummy treats! Let’s get the honey and cookies ready. Honey is sweet and cookies are a tasty snack. Let’s say it together:
Time to get the honey out,
Time to get the honey out,
Time to get the honey out,
We’ll all have tea!
Time to get the cookies out,
Time to get the cookies out,
Time to get the cookies out,
How fun it will be!
After our tea party, it’s important to clean up. Working together makes it easy and fun! Let’s say it together:
Let’s help clean the table off,
Let’s help clean the table off,
Let’s help clean the table off,
We all had tea!
Wow! You did a great job helping with the tea party. It’s so much fun when we work and play together. Remember, teamwork makes everything better!
Tea Party Role Play: Gather some toy dishes, cups, and pretend food. Invite your friends or family to join you in a pretend tea party. Take turns being Polly who puts the kettle on, and practice setting the table with saucers, teacups, napkins, and spoons. Discuss how each item is used and why it’s important for a tea party.
Observation Walk: Go on a short walk around your home or classroom and look for items that you might use in a real tea party. Can you find a kettle, cups, or napkins? Talk about how these items are similar or different from the ones in the story. How would you use them in your own tea party?
Teamwork Challenge: After your pretend tea party, work with a friend or family member to clean up. Make it a game by timing how quickly you can tidy up together. Discuss how working as a team made the cleanup faster and more fun. What other activities can you do together to make them easier?
