Place objects pertaining to a family into a box.
Include items such as a baby rattle, a toothbrush, a comb, baby bottle, etc. Have the children feel the objects and try to identify them. Since our theme was families and it was fall, we went out for a nature walk to gather all different kinds and colors of leaves. The kids had a blast and the parents liked them, too. This project combines art, science, and literacy since I had the children dictate to me at the end of the project something about their family.
