Hibernation

For children to truly internalize a concept as many different tactile experiences they can engage in the more internalized the concept will become. Below in another way the Yeladim 'experienced ' Hibernation.
Pictures of animals that hibernate were covered with Chocolate spread. They were hibernating. When it became Spring the Yeladim needed to take off the the chocolate spread - let the animals out of their hibernating places. The Yeladim thoroughly enjoyed this activity!

 

Zev asked for a napkin and chose to wipe off the chocolate spread. 

Finally the animals appeared and it was quite messy and fun!
