Oh, I'm happy you feel great, Duck Duck.
Today is a very special day.
We have a sensory play day today.
Oh, what does that mean?
Oh, today we're going to use our hands to play with something fun.
We're going to the sand table.
Yay.
I love playing in the sand.
Do you all love playing in the sand?
Me too.
Let's head over to our sand table so we can have some fun.
Are you ready, friends?

We made it to the sand table.
Oh, I'm so excited.
Look at the sand, Duck Duck.
Are you excited?
Yes.
Oh, yes, yes, yes.
I'm excited too.
So we have sand on this side.
Lots of sand for us to play with.
And sand on this side.
Now today I have a shovel we can play with.
Oh, a little ice cream scooper.
Maybe we can pretend and make ice cream sundaes using the sand.
There are so many things we can play with sand.
We can play hide and seek.
We can just use the sand to just make things or just use it to feel.
Use our hands and our fingers to touch the sand and feel it.
This sand is really soft.
Feel it, Duck Duck.
Oh, so soft.
It is really soft.
I even bought some toys that I'm going to hide inside so we can play hide and seek.
But first, let's practice a little scooping.
Let's practice using our shovel.
This is a shovel.
To scoop.
Scoop the sand like this.
I'll hold it and I go under the sand and scoop up.
And now look, Duck Duck, look, friends.
There's sand inside the shovel.
Let's see.
Duck Duck, would you like to try and scoop some sand?
Okay.
Hold on.
There you go.
You got it?
Okay, here we go.
Scoop up.
Good job, Duck Duck.
You can use shovels to scoop.
Scoop up the sand.
Oh, and we can even make different things with the sand like ice cream sundaes.
Yes, yes, yes, Duck Duck said yes, yes, yes.
Duck Duck wants an ice cream sundae.
Okay, I'm going to use our ice cream scooper to make an ice cream sundae for Duck Duck.
Would you like one scoop or two scoops?
Quack, quack, quack, two scoops.
Okay, one.
Oh, friends, will you help me count?
And scoop, scoop, scoop, scoop, scoop.

Okay, let's play hide-and-seek.
I love playing hide-and-seek in the sand.
It's so much fun.
So Duck Duck, I hide some special things in the sand, and then we have to try and find it.
Would you like to play?
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh, wonderful.
How about we hide some bears?
Oh, I have a red bear and a yellow bear and a blue bear.
Oh, and another yellow bear.
Let's try and hide those.
Okay, Duck Duck, close your eyes.
No peeking, no peeking, friends.
I'm going to hide all the bears.
Let's see if we can find them.
No peeking, no peeking.
Okay, everyone open your eyes.
Uh-oh, where are the bears?

There's still one more bear missing.
Okay, it's my turn, everyone.

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
Oh, like you, Duck Duck, I found a yellow bear.
That makes bear number four.
Four bears.
We did it.
Yay.
That was so much fun.
Friends, I absolutely love playing in the sand table.
It's so much fun, and sand is even relaxing, too.
Duck Duck, did you have fun?
I hope you did.
Oh, my friends, I hope you got some ideas that you can do in the sand.
You can even hide numbers and letters, any kind of toys.
Lots of fun and lots of things you can do with sand play.
All right, everyone, it's time for us to clean up and head back over to our circle time board.
See you over there.
Bye.
Oh, Duck Duck, that was so much fun.
Did you have fun playing in the sand?
I did.
Oh, friends, I hope you had fun, too.
Well, it's time for Duck Duck to say goodbye.
We hope we see you again really, really soon.
Friends, will you wave to Duck Duck?
Goodbye, Duck Duck.
We're happy you came today.
Oh, Duck Duck, we can't wait to see you again.
Bye, friends.
Bye-bye, Duck Duck.
That was so much fun, friends.
Okay, let's go back to our board.
Now, my friends, it's time to go down our circle time board.
Oh, letter of the day.
Oh, I wonder what our letter of the day is.
Drum roll, please.
Letter B.
Can you say B?
Again, say B.
That's right.
This is uppercase B, and this is lowercase b.
Every letter makes the sound, and B says b.
Again, b.
Can you try and make that sound?

One more time.
Put your lips together and say b.
B says b.
Every letter makes the sound, and B says b.
Oh, wonderful.

But before we do, let's end with one of our circle time songs.
Here we go!
Hi friends, I want to share the story of five little ducks and their mama duck too.
Get ready, hold up five fingers.
Those can be your ducks.
Here we go!
Five little ducks went over the hill and duck said,
five little ducks came back.
One, two, three, four, two.
Two little ducks found the bush and farm.
None of the ducks came back.
Oh, mama duck is sad.
Sad mama duck went out one day,
over the hill and far away.
Mama duck said,
quack, quack, quack, quack.
And all of the five little ducks said, quack, quack, quack.
I had so much fun with you all here in circle time with Miss Monica.
It's time for us to say goodbye, but I'll see you again really soon.
Goodbye, everyone.
I'll see you again soon.
