Feelings song
(Tune: Twinkle, twinkle)
I have feelings, you do too
Let’s all sing about a few.
I am happy, I am sad,
I get scared, I get mad.
I am proud of being me.
That’s a feeling too, you see.
I have feelings, you do too.
We just sang about a few.

My Autumn Book
Parents, after watching the video take a walk outside with your child, (if weather permits) and look around at the trees. Collect some leaves, and explore them.
What texture do they have, what shapes do you see? Are the leaves pointy, oval, or curvy? Make your own Autumn book, and make pictures of everything you may remember from your walk.
Padres, después de ver el video, salgan a caminar con su hijo (si el clima lo permite) y miren los árboles a su alrededor.
Recoge las hojas y explóralas. ¿Qué textura tienen y qué formas ves? ¿Son puntiagudos, ovalados o con curvas? Haga su propio libro de otoño y haga dibujos de todo lo que pueda recordar de su caminata.
Below are images of the trees mentioned in the story!

Educational Video:
The Five Senses
After watching the video about how our five senses work, play with child, a guessing game. Have child close his/her eyes, give him/her something to touch, taste, hear, smell, and after child guesses have him/her see what it object was.
Después de ver el video sobre cómo funcionan nuestros cinco sentidos, juegue con el niño, un juego de adivinanzas. Haga que el niño cierre los ojos, dele algo para tocar, saborear, oír, oler y, después de que el niño adivine, pídale que vea de qué se trataba.
Lastly, have your child draw his/her face and label the body parts with each of the senses. TASTE, TOUCH, HEARING, SMELL and SIGHT.
Por último, haga que su hijo dibuje su cara y etiquete las partes del cuerpo con cada uno de los sentidos. ¡GUSTO, ¡TACTO, OIDO, OLFATO y VISTA!
