Let's play with the little body

Rationale:
After the adaptation period and having an elaborated group diagnosis in which the interest for the
body, the movement and its possibilities of expression as well as the pleasure for physical activity
and music is a priority, we will embark on a project that has the body as its axis, experiencing its
characteristics and possibilities through music as a trigger for playing and learning.
The child expresses himself and feels through his body, so it is important that he knows, explores
and enjoys it, not only its external and visible parts, but also those that he does not see but feels and
generate in him a great interest, a great fantasy. The child learns from the world around him, from
his body and goals. Therefore, working with the body will allow the child to communicate more with
the environment and with him/herself. In this learning process the child will be able to explore,
invent with his body and his movements allowing him to achieve his fluidity of ideas of expression
and flexibility to be able to develop his expressive and creative capacity. The project will be divided
into two stages, the first one: the body: characteristics, care, movements, skills and possibilities of
expression and the second stage will be based on the senses.

Note for the notebook

Dear family: hello! How are you? We are doing great, playing and getting to know each other a little
bit more every day. We are starting a new project whose axis will be the care and knowledge of our
body and its possibilities and we will carry it out through songs, music of all styles, food, musical
instruments and countless materials, we will explore, learn, play and have fun.
Children express themselves and feel through their body, so it is important that they know, explore
and enjoy it, not only its external and visible parts, but also those that they do not see but feel and
generate in them a great interest, a great fantasy. Therefore, researching with their bodies will allow
them to communicate more with the environment and with themselves.
Among other things, we are going to work on sphincter control with games, books, dough,
transferring, etc. It is very important that you let me know your concerns so that we can accompany
each other in this important process. We have planned some activities and materials that we will
need your participation and support in order to be able to carry them out.
For the time being, look for photos of the family where you can see the pregnancy, the newborn
baby, the baby at one year old and a recent one, as well as toys or objects that are no longer used,
rattles, pacifiers, blankets, small clothes, bottles, in case they are still using them (bottle and
pacifier), they should bring them with them on the day of the activity so they are not left in the
garden.If they are still using them (bottle and pacifier), they should bring them on the day of the
activity so they are not left in the garden, I will let them know.
As the project progresses, we will keep you informed of the latest news and the materials needed.
We are super excited and have days of fun and learning ahead of us. I send you a big kiss and stay
tuned!
