Playgroup’s KIC pre-activities

To get the playgroup children ready and excited for the KIC event, the children did a few art projects with the sports theme.

The first activity that they did was different types of ball mobiles. The types of balls chosen were Soccer, basketball, bowling and volley balls. Prior to the activity, the children were shown pictures of the different balls and they learnt the names.


Angel tore the newspapers into long strips before crushing them into balls. These will then be stuffed into the different types of ‘balls’ that the children have painted.



To seal the two sides of the ball together, Ethan used his finger to spread white glue onto the sides.



Once the balls have dried, strings are attached to them and then the teachers hung the balls.

The next activity would be the making of medals. Each of the children were given a printed template of the medals and they coloured them with crayons. Through this activity, the children learnt the purpose of medals.



Cedric and Fang Fei concentrated hard on colouring their medals. Both of them wanted a yellow medal.




After colouring, a silver ribbon was attached to the medal. Akash proudly showed his completed medal to his classmates and said, “Akash got medal.”

The children also made replicas of the Youth Olympic Games Torch.



The children drew on some patterns on the ‘body’ of the torch before painting blue paint over it. Zhi Qian was carefully spreading the blue paint on the torch.



Angel stuffed the orange and yellow coloured tissue paper into the torch to create the flames. Angel said, “Yellow and orange fire!”



After completing the torch, Fang Fei held up her own replica of the Youth Olympic Games torch with pride.

In one of our lesson activities for the month of March, we aimed to achieve these objectives: Children will be able to pick up things with thumb and pointer fingers. Learn the correct positions of the different parts of the face.


The first thing that the children were taught was to tear up the colour papers up into smaller pieces. Jia sheng said “I can tear!”
“So can I!" said Fang Fei and Zhi Qian.


Fang Fei tore up the coloured paper into pieces and stuffed them into the paper bag. She learnt the skill of picking up things with her thumb and pointer finger.


Another group of children used newspaper instead of coloured paper to stuff the paper bags. Ethan said “newspaper!” The other 2 children saw Ethan taking the newspaper and they too took the newspaper and stuffed it into their paper bags while saying,
"So can I!"


Cedric picked the hair up using his thumb and pointer finger to paste it up onto the yellow paper bag correctly. “ red hair !” said Cedric.


Jia Sheng chose a purple pink bag. He pasted the eyes on the face puppet correctly and said “Eyes!”


The children used the rubber bands to tie up the paper bags. They were very attentive thoughout the whole lesson.
