Before going into snack break we decided to write down the codes of snack time. Everybody together agreed upon 10-11 codes. I wrote them down and put it up for everybody to see and kids just applied/followed them with no reminders from me!!
After exploring the sand toys together I made 3 teams and divided the toys amongst them. The teams were given one sand tray each and were asked to make a story together or individually with the given set of toys. The stories were full of action and had lots of animals in them.
One kid told an amazing story of two characters in desert who sold sand to make money and used the money to buy a fountain so that they can have bath…..
