Nagano Rainbow – I Love My Family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦  (February 23th-27th)

What a joyful and busy week we had in rainbow Class! We explored the wonderful themes of Family, Music, Gym, and Outdoor Play, and each day was filled with laughter, learning, and lots of movement.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Theme

This week, We did an activity that is related to our theme which is about Family. Kids colored their paper houses and placed the special people in their lives inside their little house. Everyone was so fond of the activity as they thought about their home and their loved ones including the pets or their imagined pets. They made sure nobody in the family was left out. Everyone were excited to share who is in their family. We also created their Finger Family during craft time, we did it by tracing their own hand in a paper and then they placed each family member on the right finger. This activity was fun because kids were able to create art out of the this months theme song – Finger Family song.

Skills we worked on:

  • Language development
  • Social-emotional awareness
  • Fine motor skills through coloring

🎵 Music & Movement

During music class kids were given the Fruit shaped maracas as the instrument of the day. Everyone loved this cute little instruments. They happily shook the maracas to a beat. We also worked on our listening skills, our music teacher played different sounds and kids had to guess what thing made such sound from a picture book. Music class was such a delight.

Skills we worked on:

  • Listening skills
  • Rhythm and coordination
  • Self-expression

🤸 Gym Time

In gym, since it was a rainy day we had it indoors. Everyone got active inside the classroom lots of movement were done.

Gym time helps build strength, balance, and confidence. Everyone showed great effort and teamwork!

🌳 Outdoor Play

We enjoyed plenty of fresh air and sunshine this week! 

Outdoor play included:

  • Running races
  • Exploring nature
  • Playing on the playground
  • Practicing sharing and turn-taking

Outdoor time supports gross motor development and gives children the chance to explore the world around them in hands-on ways.

💬 Looking Ahead

Next week, we will continue building friendships, exploring new songs, and developing our movement skills. Thank you for being such an important part of our preschool family!

Have a wonderful weekend! 🌈
