Need a movement activity to help the students release some of their holiday energy and excitement. Try this cute Reindeer Moves game.
DESCRIPTION
Watch your little reindeer leap and prance during this
movement activity! Label each of several index cards with a different action
that a reindeer might do, such as leap, jump, run, prance, or fly. Store the
cards in a small paper bag. Help each youngster trace each of his hands on
brown construction paper and then cut out the shapes. Staple the hand cutouts
to a paper strip to represent antlers. Then fit the strip to the child's head
to make a headband. Have each child wear his headband along with a red sticky
dot on the end of his nose. Direct students to stand. Then invite a youngster
to remove one card from the bag. Read the word and then turn on holiday music. Invite
youngsters to perform the action on the card until you stop the music. Continue
in this manner until all of the cards have been used. Go, reindeer! Go!
