Ant Farm Center
If you're feeling especially brave, consider
having an ant farm center. It will inspire the
children's interest and they'll want to learn
more about these common picnic pests.

it all back together again.

Morning Circle:
Prior to the children arriving, decorate the room for a picnic. Make a trail of "ants" along
the floor leading to the story area. Make your own out of construction paper, or use
stickers or cutouts if they're available. Have some artificial flowers dotted around the
room, and even use some green outdoor carpeting if you can find some!
Introduce the letter "p" to the children by saying , "I know something special that starts
with "P!" It's something you do in the daytime, you bring a blanket to, you bring a basket
to, you bring food to, and ants often show up...." Let the children guess the word after
each clue. If they don't guess "Picnic," help them out. Bring out a picnic basket and
explain to the children that today is "Picnic Day" at Preschool! Say, "I have some special
things Packed in my Picnic basket, and they all begin with 'P.'" Give the children clues
for each item to see if they can guess what each is. "P" items could include a Pear, a
Peach, Peas, Potato chips, a Plum, a jar of Peanut butter, Pickles, and Paper Plates.
Review the concept of day and night by discussing with the children how there are certain
things you do in the day, and other things you do in the night. Let the children offer
ideas about things they do in the day versus at nighttime. Ask, "Would you have a picnic
in the daytime or the nighttime?" Have some pictures, snipped from magazines, of people
doing various activities. Try to have about 10 different activities represented. Try to find
photos of everything from brushing teeth, eating cereal, and getting on a school bus to
watching TV, eating dinner, and going to sleep. Show each photo to the children and let
them place them in chronological order on a whiteboard or corkboard. Sing, "This is the
Way We Brush Our Teeth" (or eat our cereal, go to school, do our chores, go to sleep,
etc.)

"It's the Bear!" by Jez Alborough
Ask the children if they enjoyed the story. Ask the children about picnic
experiences they've had. Did anyone ever see a bear at their picnic? Ask
them, "Did you know that there are stories of picnics in the Bible?" Go on
to tell them briefly of the miracle of the loaves and fishes. Say, "Jesus
always had a crowd of people following Him around who really wanted to
hear what He had to say. One day, it got to be about suppertime, and there
were over 5,000 people with Him, and they were getting hungry! His
disciples told Jesus He should send everyone back home so they could get
some dinner, but Jesus said He was sure they could find something right
where they were to feed this great crowd. Now, there were no McDonald's
or Burger Kings in sight, and no one had thought to pack picnic baskets.
They were way out away from town on a grassy hillside. What were they
going to eat? The disciples brought a boy to Jesus who had been clever
enough to bring himself a snack. But all the boy had were five small loaves
of bread, and two measly little fish. Jesus smiled and the boy gave Him his
snack. Well, Jesus blessed that small snack, and it turned into enough bread
and fish to feed all those many many people! When the disciples were
helping to clean up after everyone had eaten, there were even twelve
baskets of leftovers!! Isn't it awesome how Jesus knows everything we
need?"
