Humpty Dumpty

Do you know this nursery rhyme?

Humpty Dumpty | Early Years - Nursery Rhymes

See if you can make up your own silly Humpty Dumpty rhymes. For example, Humpty Dumpty sat on a chair, Humpty Dumpty flew up in the air! Listen to the words air and chair - they rhyme! Try this one, Humpty Dumpty sat on a house... I'm not surprised that Humpty cracked when he fell off the wall as egg shells are very fragile!

A Feely Walk

Touch the bricks on the outside of your house. How do they feel? Some bricks feel rough and some feel smooth. With your grown up, go on a feely walk around your garden or yard. With their help, close your eyes as you feel the different objects and think of words to describe them. Are they rough or smooth? Hard or soft? Fluffy or prickly? Warm or cold? Take photos of things that you find, especially things that are too big to pick up such as tree trunks or lamp posts! Remember to only touch things that are safe and clean and wash you hands when you have finished.
