Today the Haifa and Tel Aviv children played Squirrels,Change Trees.
Here is how you play...
Set up more chairs than children, and have everybody choose one. Play music. Everyone runs, gallops, hops around the chairs (all of the children move in the same direction of the classroom). When the music stops the children (squirrels) find a seat(tree). Start again and take away one or two chairs until there are more children than chairs. The children are asked to help the children that don't have a chair (tree) to sit in, problem solve and make room for a fellow squirrel.
This organized game encourages group cooperation, problem solving, conflict resolution strategies, and team building. This is a game only preschooler would love!
