During circle time we talked about whales. We talked about where they live, how big they are, how they are mammals, how they breathe, the kinds of whales, and how their blubber keeps them warm.
To show the children how a blowhole works, I partially filled a balloon with water. Then I told the children to pretend that the balloon was a whale. I swam the balloon around in the bathroom sink and when the balloon came to the surface I pushed the water out, making it look like a whale spouting.
We made some whale sounds and then made a killer whale for our craft.
