Bless all joeys everywhere,
Help them remember their promise to share.
Guide them all safely home today
And watch over them while they work and play.
Amen
Games/Craft Information:
What can you hear? –walk/run around outside and try and identify sounds around us.
Echoes in the drain– half group at one drain entrance – call messages to each other
Paper Bangers: - Fold a paper banger and make some noise!!
Science:
- Hydrophones – tap two stones together, is it loud? Try it under water and listen through a hydrophone….
- Good Vibrations: - sound comes in waves we can feel. Play loud music and see the salt dance!
- Feel the Vibrations: - using a balloon press it against your cheek, have someone talk into the other side – can you feel the balloon vibrate?
- Hanger Clangers: - for those who didn’t do it last year….
Clucking Chicken Cup
Need:
• Plastic disposable cup per person
• Matchstick
• Length of string.
• Small piece of foam sponge
To Make: Pierce hole through the bottom of the cup. Thread string through the hole and tie a knot around the matchstick to secure the end of the string inside the cup.
To Use: Slightly wet the sponge Hold the cup in one hand with the other hand wrap the piece of sponge around the string. Tug the sponge several times down the string to create a clucking noise.
Don’t make a sound: can you sneak up on a blindfold leader and stick a sticker on her?
