Hello, little friend! Do you ever wonder what the weather is like outside? Let’s find out together!
Sometimes, the sky is gray, and raindrops fall from the clouds. You might need an umbrella to stay dry. If you wear sneakers, they might get wet and soggy. But don’t worry, you can splash in puddles and have fun!
On windy days, the air blows really fast. Your hair might fly around, and the trees might sway. Leaves can dance in the wind, too. It’s fun to feel the breeze on your face!
When it’s cold, you might see snowflakes falling from the sky. You can build a snowman and make snow angels. But make sure to wear warm clothes so you don’t get too chilly!
On sunny days, the sun shines bright and warm. You might feel hot and sweaty, so it’s a good idea to drink water and wear a hat. The sunshine is perfect for playing outside!
Sometimes, clouds cover the sky, and you can’t see the sun. It might feel a little gloomy, but you can still have fun playing with your friends.
Every now and then, the weather is just right. There’s no rain, wind, or snow. It’s a great day to play outside with your friends and enjoy the fresh air!
There are so many different kinds of weather, and each one can be fun in its own way. Whether it’s rainy, sunny, snowy, or windy, you can always find something exciting to do. So, what is the weather like today? Are you ready to go outside and play?
Weather Observation Journal: Create a simple weather journal with your child. Each day, ask them to look outside and draw a picture of what the weather looks like. Is it sunny, rainy, snowy, or windy? Encourage them to add details like clouds, the sun, or raindrops. At the end of the week, review the journal together and talk about how the weather changed each day.
Dress for the Weather: Gather different clothing items like a hat, scarf, sunglasses, raincoat, and mittens. Ask your child to pick the right clothes for different weather scenarios. For example, what would they wear on a snowy day? How about a sunny day? This activity helps them understand how to dress appropriately for different weather conditions.
Weather Dance Party: Play a game where you call out different types of weather, and your child has to dance or move like that weather. For example, they can sway like trees on a windy day, jump like raindrops on a rainy day, or twirl like snowflakes on a snowy day. This fun activity encourages them to express their understanding of weather through movement.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

What is the weather like outside today? Can my friends and I go outside and play? Could it be rainy and drippy and foggy? Will I need an umbrella? Will my sneakers get soggy? Or maybe it’s windy; my hair will be blowing, the tree may bend over, and leaves will get going.
What if it’s freezing with icicles and snow? I could build a snowman, but will Mom let me go? It could even be hailing; it falls from the clouds. Then I can’t go outside; it’s too wet and too loud.
What is the weather like outside today? Can my friends and I go outside and play? What if it’s hot and the sun shines too bright? When I’m sweaty and hot, I don’t feel quite right. Or it could be so cloudy I can’t see the sun when clouds hide the sunshine; it’s not as much fun.
But maybe it’s perfect; there’s no snow or ice. There’s no wind, rain, or hail; the weather is nice. There are so many ways that the weather can be. Maybe all kinds of weather are okay with me because I really just want to go outside and play. My friends and I want to play outside today.
