More Nursery Rhyme Fun!

Mrs. Faas caught a few moments for us today while we had some fun with nursery rhymes!  We had packed up some items on Monday that went with a variety of nursery rhymes.  Today I placed those items in a feely box!  We read the rhyme card and then had kiddos come out and see if they could find the matching items without peeking!  The kids had a great time trying to pick out the right item!  
 Today we also did a super cool science experiment to go with Jack Be Nimble!  I lit two candles.  The kiddos then made predictions on which candle would burn out first, the one on the counter or the one in the jar with a lid on the top.  One student said that the candle on the counter would go out first, because the fan would blow it out and the one in the jar was protected from the fan.  What great thinking!   The children were amazed when the candle inside the jar went out first!  We had a great talk about oxygen and why the candle inside the jar went out!
