TALK:
Show them the
craft picture today and ask what letter do they see and what is the other part
a picture of? Yes, a House and H is for House. Do you think other animals or
even bugs have a type of house?
Today we will
be talking about different houses and then we will decorate a house to take
home in just a little while.This is also perfect time to teach your child about their house- color of door- one story or two, their address, and phone number in case of Emergency!

Fingerplay: “Here is a House”
Here is a house built up high (hands over head to make a roof)
With two big chimneys reaching for the sky (raise arms up high)
Here is a window (draw a square)
Here is a door (pretend to open a door)
If we look inside (peek through fingers)
There’s a mouse on the floor! (scamper fingers away)

Tap one hand with fingers of other
Peep in,
Form fingers into rings around eyes.
Turn the knob,
Make turning motion with other hand.
Walk in,
Walk fingers of one hand on palm of other.
And – shut the door!
Clap loudly.
