Gather and Sort the Balls

Friday: Gather & Sort the Balls
Preschool Bible Lesson: TBA
Age Groups:
  • preschool
Equipment Needed:
  • plastic balls
  • wading pool
  • buckets, in the same colors as the balls
  • weight to hold down the buckets (e.g., gravel or bags of sand)
Preparation:
Put about three inches of water in the bottom of the wading pool. Weight four buckets (red, green, yellow, and blue) enough to hold them down, and set them in the pool. Scatter 30-50 plastic balls (in the same colors) all over the yard.
Instructions:
Have the children find one ball at a time, bring it, and try to throw it into the correct bucket, without stepping into the pool. If they miss, have them go get another ball and try again. If they make it, clap and cheer, and send them for another ball. Yay!
