This was fun and funny times with kindergarten.
Mystery Bag: a rubber ducky (many but not all kids figured it out when it squeaked. We took some time to explain why we guessed what we did- the specific shape of the duck bill helped.)
Word of the Week: English: rubber duck
Spanish: pato (or patito) de goma
ASL: make sign for letter R near your mouth then the symbol for duck.

Songs:
Sesame Street’s Rubber Duckie (classic!) & you can find it in Spanish online, too.
“(Wash your) Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes” is another fun one.
Branch out with 5 Little Ducks!
The poem Take Me Out of the Bathtub by Alan Katz (from the book of the same title published.by Scholastic, 2001) was a winner!
Books: Splish, Splash Animal Baths (April Sayre, Mill Brook Press, 2000.) is a great non-fiction picture book to get kids thinking. Also try:
