A sunny day drawing cube game in Pre-K

Here’s a fun game to get your child drawing a sunny day picture!

With summer on its way, we have been talking about things you can do on a sunny day during circle time and then we played a game to add a little different spin on drawing a picture of a sunny day.

Setting up the Process

The children started by making their own sunny day cubes (see the bottom of this post for how to download and print your own free copy of this cube).

Then the children tossed their cubes and drew what ever landed on top of the cube on their paper.

Adding onto the Drawings

The children made up their own rules as they went along. For example, you were allowed to draw more than one cloud if you want or you can color the house any color you want. I always love listening to the children make up their own rules for play.

As the children went along, they added more elements to their sunny day pictures like apples to a tree or smoke from the chimney.  The children took their time exploring the drawing process with this little game.

For those of you who would like a copy of the drawing cube, you can go to Preschool Spot and download a copy there for free!

Every time I think I know everything I need to know about teaching young children, God says, "Hold on a minute!" and gives me a new challenge.

Let me tell ya...

With each new challenge that you overcome, you will find yourself better equipped and more passionate about teaching young children.

God didn't call wimps to lead, teach, or care for His children. Nope, he has high expectations, so get ready. You will have to give your very best but after teaching for over 30 years, I can tell you that it is a wonderful and rewarding journey.

Whenever your calling feels hard, just remember, 'He who began a good work in you (and in the children you serve) will be faithful to complete it.'
