Plan a celebration

I can work together to choose a song and a game everyone can enjoy.

Let’s get started

Today we will explore plan a celebration through play. Grown-ups can model it first; children can respond by pointing, moving, speaking, or drawing. There is no speed test.

Learn together

  1. Watch together: Work together to choose a song and a game everyone can enjoy.
  2. Try it as a team: Say how it made someone feel. Pause, repeat and let the child lead.
  3. Try once more in a new way: Practice together with words or puppets. Celebrate the attempt, not perfect results.

Watch and try an example

Work together to choose a song and a game everyone can enjoy.

Show what you noticed

  1. Show or tell a grown-up what you noticed while we explored plan a celebration. An adult may enter the child's words.
  2. Try it again: Work together to choose a song and a game everyone can enjoy. Tell your grown-up which part was fun or surprising.
  3. Draw, point, move, or talk to show what you learned about plan a celebration. Adults can record an observation instead of requiring writing.

Five optional ways to revisit this week

Choose a few minutes on any days that suit your child; these are ideas, not mandatory daily assignments.

  1. Day 1 · Discover: Work together to choose a song and a game everyone can enjoy. What did the child notice about plan a celebration? A parent may record their spoken answer.

  3. Day 3 · Change it: Explore plan a celebration again in a different place or with another set of safe materials. What changed when you tried the activity differently?
  4. Day 4 · Pretend: Invite the child to explain or act out plan a celebration for a toy animal or family member. Which part could the child explain, show, or imitate?
  5. Day 5 · Celebrate: Let the child choose one favorite part of plan a celebration to repeat, draw or talk about. What is one skill, observation, or question to remember next time?
