One of the stories we have focused on during our Back to School theme is The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn. I LOVE this story as both a teacher an a mom because it lovingly touches on the fears children have when starting school and the Mom who needs that extra kiss while letting her baby go.
We read the story the night before the Lil Divas started school and I gave each of my babies a kiss on the palm of their hand to take with them the next day. My Oldest Diva fell asleep with her palm closed - holding my kiss tight. :)
The next day, after both Lil Divas had been to school we talked about how they felt that morning. I knew I wanted to capture their feelings and that moment so we worked on a simple keepsake craft.
Craft: First Day of School Handprint Keepsake
What You Need:
construction paper
markers
scissors
glue
What To Did:
1. Let each child trace their handprint (assist younger children)
tracing their hands - they've gotten so good at doing it themselves! |
I LOVE their little handprints! |
2. Cut out handprints - great scissor practice for those that can do it themselves.

3. cut out a small heart shape
paper heart cutting |
4. Glue hand onto paper w/heart in palm. I made a simple template for the Lil Divas handprints. They had to write their name and how they felt on the first day of school (see template in photo below).
A Lil Diva Kissing hand - my favorite kind |
I am going to keep these with a few pictures of the Lil divas on their first day of school - a wonderful memento!
I also found some great Kissing Hand/Raccoon Themed Math Printables from Play 2 Learn Printables
The Littlest Diva worked on a clothespin count where she had to count the number of kissing hands and pin the correct number.
clothespin number recognition |
The Oldest Diva worked on some basic addition problems. She had to cut out and glue the correct number of raccoons and kissing hands (depicted in the addition problem) and then count them to get the answer to the problem.
addition fun |
Science: Nocturnal vs Diurnal Animals Sort
I found a great printable of nocturnal and diurnal animals from Spell Outloud. I laminated the photos, cut them apart and we played an animal sorting game - categorizing the animals into nocturnal and diurnal animals. I was amazed and impressed with how many the Oldest Diva knew - she only got 1 wrong out of the 12 and it was because she couldn't figure out what was in the photo.
nocturnal vs diurnal animal sort |
As soon as I saw these Hand Shaped Cookie Cutters at Michaels ($.99) I knew we had to make Kissing Hand cookies!! I had seen them on various sites and blogs online and the Lil Divas and I were extremely excited to whip up a batch at home.
You will need a hand shaped cookie cutter recipe like these:
Here's the Sugar Cookie Recipe I used for the cookies & we added Hershey's Kisses Hugs to the palm as the kiss - so cute & the Lil Divas enjoyed making them!
My Lil Bakers |
Have you read the Kissing Hand with your child or class? What fun have you had with it?

I think I like the cookies best!But the whole session looks great! The whole kissing hand idea is so lovely!

The cookies look wonderful. I love the counting activity too. JDaniel read this book in preschool this week.
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking to Read.Explore.Learn.
Visiting from Fun For Kids--I love that story too. Those are great extension ideas and the cookies are adorable!
ReplyDeleteOn the first day of preschool I trace each of the children's hands. Then I send home a paper for each parent to trace their hand on it and return it the next day. The following day I collect all of the handprints. I put them under "Shrinky Dink" sheets and trace them on while we count the fingers on each hand I'm tracing, Then I add a permanent marker red heart to the center. Then I punch a hole in the top of each one and put them in the toaster oven. You have to be quick to take care of any fingers that curl into the palm too tightly, but when they uncurl - it's fantastic. We hung them on pink cording. The kids got their parents hands to wear and the parents got their child's hand and a copy of the book "The Kissing Hand". <3

ReplyDeleteelectric scooter turns on but won't go
Possible Battery Issues: When an electric scooter turns on but fails to move, the first thing to check is the battery. Insufficient power in the battery can prevent the scooter from functioning properly. It's important to ensure that the battery is fully charged and properly connected. If the battery voltage is low or if there are any loose connections, it can lead to a lack of power delivery to the motor, resulting in the scooter not moving.
