Children love celebrations. During the Preschool years, each month is cause for another fun filled festivity. We read books about holidays, construct art projects, and even play special games. Holiday fingerplays are a great way to reinforce newly learned traditions. They may also serve as the script for a classroom bulletin board or a group illustrated story. The fingerplays included in this book will allow teachers to ask their children a variety of questions that foster creativity and divergent thinking, thereby enhancing oral language skills. Props for those fingerplays can easily be acquired at party, discount, and department stores. A prop box for each holiday can be a valuable resource in your classroom.

Fabulous Fingerplays Fight Fidgets!,
This review is from: Fabulous Holiday and Seasonal Fingerplays (Paperback)
These books and tapes offer ideas for almost every pre-kindergarten experience. Rainy day? Kitson's got it covered. New food? She's got a rhyme. These fingerplays and rhymes are fun and educational.

Awesome Fingerplays,
By Jennifer Vickory (Alachua, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fabulous Holiday and Seasonal Fingerplays (Paperback)
These seasonal fingerplays are great. My favorite two are about rabbits. When my children are playing with playdough I get out the rabbit cookie cutter and quote two of the fingerplays from this book. One is called A rabbit in the meadow on a sunny day and the other one is called I looked across the meadow and what did I see. There is also a spring fingerplay about umbrellas and rain. I would like to send home a copy of this fingerplay with a small cut out umbrella for each child. I feel that this helps them to learn the fingerplay by heart. Another fingerplay from this book is called A cute little duck stepped out of the lake. I have a stuffed duck that I show to the children when teaching this fingerplay. This is also a great book. Thank you!
