Fun Facts About the Months

Did you know?

  • January is the first month of the year and it’s often very cold!
  • February is the shortest month with only 28 or 29 days.
  • March brings the start of spring when flowers begin to bloom.
  • April is known for its rainy days that help plants grow.
  • May is when the weather gets warmer and we see more sunshine.
  • June is the start of summer, perfect for playing outside!

  • October is famous for Halloween and colorful leaves.
  • November has Thanksgiving, a time to be thankful.
  • December is the last month and brings holiday cheer!

Great job, everyone! Now you know all the months of the year. Keep practicing, and soon you’ll remember them all by heart!

  • Can you think of a special event or holiday that happens in your favorite month? Why is it your favorite?
  • What changes do you notice in nature or the weather during different months? How do these changes affect what you like to do outside?
  • If you could create a new month, what would you call it and what special things would happen during that month?
  1. Month Match-Up: Create a set of cards with the names of the months on them. Mix them up and lay them face down. Take turns flipping two cards at a time, trying to find matching pairs. When you find a match, say the month out loud and share something you know about it, like a holiday or the weather during that month.

  2. Seasonal Sorting: Gather some pictures or draw your own of different seasonal activities or weather (e.g., snowman, beach ball, falling leaves, flowers blooming). Sort these pictures into the months they belong to. Discuss why each picture fits with each month and what you like to do during that time of year.

  3. Month Hunt: Go on a “month hunt” around your home or classroom. Look for items that remind you of each month (like a calendar, a holiday decoration, or a seasonal piece of clothing). Share what you find with your friends and explain why it reminds you of that particular month.

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
