"Can we make a rainbow?" - Kaylina

Many years ago I went to a conference for Sunday School teachers and got a lot of great preschool ideas - the magic of simple repetition games, fill a small suitcase with beans to play with, buy scarves at thrift stores for music time, etc.

In Aberdeen I had a ton of different patterned scarves and we had a "scarf dance" each week. When I moved to Longview and started over, I found that Oriental Trading Company had scarves available for sale. Not quite as fun, but a lot easier. So the weekly "scarf dance" lives on.

One advantage of the plain colored scarves is that we can line up to match the colors of the rainbow - a simple repetitive game!
