Penguins, I have never done a week on penguins. My kids love the themed weeks, I usually do them in line with what the oldest is doing at school or to link to a special outing I have planned.
Thomas the tank engine was their favorite so far...with a trip to the Thomas railway somehow during that week I managed to slip in electrical circuitry, steam trains, coal and renewable resources, track design, the job of the train driver ( I always try to add a little about a career option to get them thinking about it early
) and fat controller plus and endless stream of Thomas and other train books ( I really don't enjoy those new thomas books, just no fun to read out loud:( )
I have a feeling my son would love a week on penguins. I can see a trip to sea world, Mr poppa penguins for bedtime reading, some great black and white crafts, puppets, definitely counting, lots of encycropedic knowledge, tap dancing
the frozen planet movie, science experiments with ice, oh and it's really easy to make a penguin costume out of a black garbage bag and a bit of white paper!
Thanks for the idea we need a new theme and they just werent giving me one.
