Kindergarteners Come to their Senses

Today our Kindergarteners learned about the human “senses” of touch and feel through some festive arts and crafts projects. The first project taught the students about their sense of “touch” and what different things feel like on our hands. The students had fun painting their hands and using their handprints to create the turkey feathers on their Thanksgiving turkey pictures. The students loved the feeling of the paint on their hands and also enjoyed getting their hands messy! The second art project that the class worked on was making homemade maracas using paper plates, some “noisy” items, and colorful tissue paper decorations. The students had a blast shaking their maracas and hearing the rhythmic music they were creating.
