Game- Eat like a pig. Have your kids eat there lunch like a piggy.
Explain that it is just for the day because it is pig day. Laugh have
fun and don't be afraid to get messy. They will think it is funny if
you eat like one too. (When I say eat like a pig I mean 'snouts in the
troth' style not eat everything in sight)

Park
Lesson- Colors and counting. Look at the green grass and the green
trees. if there are flowers what color are they. What color is the
slide and the swings. Then count everything. You can even bring a
paper with words or pictures of slides, trees etc. Then write how
many of each thing you find.
Game- Relay at the Park. Toddlers can defiantly do a relay. Make
sure you do this with them and have fun. Go threw the tunnel and
hurry to the swings and go under, then go up the stairs and down
the slide. Next climb and the bench and walk to the other side and
jump off. If your child likes this game chances are you will be tired
before they want to stop. This is a great work out too!
Craft- Painting in the park. This is easy and quick! You are
going to need a container with a lid. I used a big plastic pretzel jar,
and a big plastic pickle jar, and a plastic protein powder container.
You only need one. Grab some paint, a large plastic jar, paper,
wrapping paper ribbon, cloths pins, and a few random objects. Small
balls, legos, rocks etc. When you are at the park tie the wrapping
paper ribbon to two trees to create a cloths line. put your cloths
pins on before you do the art. Now it is time to paint. Put your
paper in and the random items of your choice. Put some paint in
(not too much). Close the lid and shake it, play soccer with it, roll it
down a hill, etc. When you are done pull it out and hang it on the
cloths line. To make different looking art put different items in and
shake the jar in a different way. The art looks so beautiful just
hanging in nature.
Activity- Have a picnic at the park.
Book- An A-Z Walk in The Park.
Paint
Lesson- What is painted? Talk about all the things that get painted.
Walls, cars, houses, art etc. How does paint feel to the touch? Use
paint brushes to count and do math.
Game- This one is Messy! Make flash cards that say right hand, left
hand, right foot, left foot, face, blue, red, yellow and green. Place the
body parts cards and the color cards in a different pile. Take turns
picking up one card from each pile. What ever the card says you do.
Ex left foot blue, this means that you paint your left foot blue.
