Let's Draw and Write with Bluey! (Magic Claw!)
Hello Little Learner! Today, we're going to have some fun drawing and maybe even doing a little bit of writing, just like Bluey and Bingo love to play!
Warm-up Chat (Like Bandit and Chilli Talk!):
- Who is your favorite character in Bluey? (Bluey, Bingo, Bandit, Chilli, Muffin, Socks?)
- What's a really fun game they play? (Maybe Keepy Uppy, Magic Claw, or Shadowlands?)
- Let's pretend we are playing Magic Claw! What prize would you want the Magic Claw to grab?
Drawing Time (Heeler Family Art):
- Let's draw something from Bluey! You can draw:
- Your favorite character (Bluey is blue, Bingo is reddish-orange!)
- A fun game they play.
- The prize you wanted from the Magic Claw!
- Think about the shapes you see. Can you draw a circle like Bluey's head? Can you draw lines for her arms and legs? Try making different lines - zig-zags like when they run fast, or wavy lines like water if they are playing at the beach!
- Use lots of fun colors! What color is Bluey? What color is Bingo?
Pre-Writing Fun (Letter Explorers):
- Let's look at the name 'Bluey'. It starts with a 'B'! Can you try to draw a big line down, and then two bumps? That's a 'B'! Let's practice drawing some 'B's on your paper, or maybe on a different piece of paper.
- What sound does 'B' make? Buh-buh-Bluey!
- You don't have to make it perfect, just trying is super fun!
Story Time (Tell Me About It!):
- Wow! Look at your amazing picture! Can you tell me all about it?
- What is happening in your drawing?
- Who is in your drawing?
- Where are they?
Great job today! You used your crayon like a drawing tool and maybe even tried writing a letter, just like a big kid! Hooray!
