Mm is for ....

We talked about the letter M.  We started out by looking for pictures around he house that started with M.  We found a monkey, money, moon, and mermaid.

 We then talked about the five senses using a Marshmallow

Sight- They said it looked round and white.

Smell- They all took a good whiff and said it smelled yummy and also like a flower.

Touch- They then felt the outside and said it was soft and they we opened up the marshmallow and felt the inside and it was sticky

Sound- We then took the marshmallow and squished it in our hands to see if we heard anything and we didn't

Taste-  This was the last and best sense to talk about.  I asked what it tasted like and they decided it was yummy and tasted like a marshmallow!

 After we finished the marshmallow sensory we read the book "Five Little Monkeys Go To The Store" about the momma monkey missing little monkeys as she has to find things in the store.  We then colored a picture of a monkey and finished up with a marshmallow treat.

 On Day two we started by playing with magnets.  We had fun putting the letters on the pan and then tipping it upside down to see if it would fall.

 We then read the story, "The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse" and then went to the table to make a mouse with the letter Mm.  For a snack we talked about mud.  We discussed how when dirt gets wet it turns into mud and how you can find worms in the mud.

So, for the treat we had chocolate pudding that looked like mud with gummy worms and smashed Oreos for the dirt on top.
