Shaving Cream Fun!
Mrs King's attempt!
https://youtu.be/GGw_a3hQ4KE
Be careful using the shaving cream especially for the little ones that have sensitive skin! Plastic gloves, popsicle sticks, straws or anything that can be used as a writing utensil.
You will need:
Tray
Shaving cream
Popsicle sticks
Alphabet, Numbers and Word cards
Paper towels
Other Activities:
"Before you start, you will want to create some sight word cards for your child. We used the following words for our cards: see, me, get, can, for, am, you, said, the, run, do, and. Feel free to use as many or few as you’d like.
Spray some shaving cream on a large tray and spread it out with a Popsicle stick so it forms a layer on the tray. Give your child a word card and a Popsicle stick and have them trace the word in the shaving cream with the stick. Of course this is a fun activity to do with your fingers as well. It took a little more time because fingers needed to be wiped off after each letter. If they weren’t, it would just spread the shaving cream all around and you couldn’t really make out the letter. This activity is great because it combines, fine motor skills, letter writing practice and a sensory experience. That is a lot of good stuff packed into one activity! This activity gets hands used to holding a writing instrument and moving in the motions they will need for writing.
When your child is done with a word they can use a Popsicle stick to smooth out the shaving cream again. Then it will be ready for the next word. You will want to be sure to have plenty of paper towels nearby for wiping hands and Popsicle sticks. Of course, no shaving cream play can be complete without playing with the shaving cream. Go have some messy, fine motor fun and get ready for Kindergarten!"
