“Winter Wonders”
The beginning of a new calendar year is upon us! It is a time of fresh starts, promising
futures, and winter weather. This January, make an effort to hold onto your holiday joy
throughout the month that sometimes brings the winter blahs. Create a warm, friendly,
and cuddly environment that is a treasure to you and your little ones. Enjoy one-onone interaction time with the babies as you snuggle and read a book about winter.
Introduce them to seasonal clothing, animals, and words during this, their very first
winter!
As you introduce new winter words with a mixture of books and real world
experiences, find opportunities to repeat them often. Not only will your infants’
language skills grow as they hear and mimic the words you say, but they will also
expand their cognitive skills by associating meanings with the new winter words.
Keep the great outdoors in your plans, even as the temperature drops! Going outside
will give your bundled up babies an opportunity to experience these new winter words
you have introduced them to. Pediatricians agree that brief trips outdoors are beneficial
for both physical and emotional health. Ask parents to send coats, hats, and mittens
each day, and label them with each child’s name for your sanity’s sake! Be sure to
organize warm outerwear in cubbies to make preparations for going outdoors easier.
In a short time, your little ones will know that outside time is coming when they see the
coats and mittens come out of the cubbies!
January’s arrival also brings the opportunity to make New Year’s resolutions. Take time
to look at each of your infants, and set a special goal for working with them during the
new year. Will you read a book each day to them? Will you take an extra opportunity
to make them feel special with a snuggle? Will you help them learn to balance as you
“walk” together? Look at the babies’ individual needs, and resolve to help the babies
meet them during their time with you in this new year!

Unit Theme: “Snow, Snowflakes, and Ice”
Introduction
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! With lots of sensory
adventures, this week is full of opportunities for your infants to
hear, see, and feel what winter is all about. Your little ones will
learn new words, such as “cold,” winter,” and “snowflakes,”
read a special snow story, and build a snowman (even if there’s
no snow to be found!). So bundle up, get ready, and enjoy a
month of winter wonders with your infants!
As you feel refreshed and energized at the opportunity for a “new start,” devote
yourself to one-on-one time with your babies this week. Talk to them about the new
year and the winter weather you may be experiencing. Cuddle your babies to keep
them warm inside as you look at the cold weather outside. Or bundle them up and take
a short walk outdoors to explore all the wonders of this season!
Room Enrichment Ideas
Decorate the room by hanging snowflake cutouts over the diaperchanging table and from the ceiling. Your infants will delight at the
sight of them as you change their diapers. Create a big friendly
snowman to hang on the wall and add paper icicles to the windows. Make a snowflake
label for each child’s cubby and crib for a nice wintry touch.

Radical Routines
Send each little one you work with the message that he or she is
unique, special, and loved by you! Focus on your one-on-one
interactions this week. During the routines of the day like
diapering, arrivals, and departures, make it a point to give each
child your full attention. At mealtimes, sit with the children
and encourage conversation. Even though your conversations
may seem one-sided, infants are listening and learning from
the things you say. Take time to observe and learn about each child’s individual needs
and interests. Infants are growing and changing so rapidly. Tune into the changes they
are going through and the new skills they are developing. Support their development
by challenging them to go to the next level. Provide interesting and new experiences
but be careful not to overstimulate or frustrate your infants. Observe closely. Reflect
on what you see and help each child grow to his or her potential!
Music, Movement, and Fingerplays
Sing a song to the tune of “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star:”
Falling, falling little snow,
Falling, falling, shine and glow.
In the light it looks so white,
Falling, falling through the night.
Falling, falling all around,
Snow is falling to the ground.
Use this fingerplay to tickle the baby’s toes:
This little snowflake has a shimmer.
This little snowflake has a glimmer.
This little snowflake is new and white.
This little snowflake shows the light.
This little snowflake is beautiful and bright!

Introduction
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! This week is full of
opportunities for toddlers to experience the wonders of
winter! With lots of sensory adventures to choose from, they
may fingerpaint with “snow paint,” explore “melting snow,”
and learn all about the color white as you talk about the winter
weather and the new year. Learning new skills such as taking turns, sharing, and putting
their coats on all by themselves will be the focus of this week. And in all the
excitement, don’t forget to take time for cuddling up and browsing through books and
enjoying quiet play with your toddlers. Have fun and share their joy and delight in all
their new discoveries!
Room Enrichment Ideas
Decorate the room by hanging snowflake cutouts over the diaperchanging table and adding them to the walls. Create a big snowman to
display on the wall and dangle paper icicles from the windows. Hang
crystal prisms from the windows too, so they will catch the sunlight coming through.
Add a winter window scene to your dramatic play area. Find a large poster of an
outdoor scene and laminate or cover it with clear contact paper. Attach the poster to
the wall about three feet off the floor. Add a window frame and panes with colored
strips of paper or posterboard. Hang real curtains at the window or make pretend
curtains to add a homey touch. What a fun view for your toddlers!

Snowflakes falling to the ground;
Wintertime is all around.
It is cold and icy too.
Oh, what fun for me and you!
Snowflakes falling to the ground;
Wintertime is all around.
Sing the following song:
I’m a little snowman, short and fat.
With a carrot nose and a winter hat.
When the sun comes out, I’ll melt away.
Come build me again on a snowy day!

“Winter Wonders”
The beginning of a new calendar year is upon us! It is a time for fresh starts, promising
futures, and winter wonders! With snow, ice, and frosty weather all around, it’s a
thrilling time of year. This month, we’ll kick off the New Year by exploring the
wonders of winter. In Week 1, we’ll look at winter weather through the theme “Snow,
Snowflakes, and Ice.” Week 2 has us bundling up in “Winter Wear” as we head
outdoors. Then we’ll take a peek at animals that live in the cold – penguins, seals, and
polar bears – in Weeks 3 and 4. Finally, we’ll see how the Eskimos handle the bitter
cold of the Arctic and learn about how they live in Week 5.
As you introduce new winter words to your twos with a mixture of books and real
world experiences, encourage the children to repeat them often. Not only will their
language skills grow, but they will also expand their cognitive skills by associating
meanings with the new winter words.
Keep the great outdoors in your plans, even as the temperature drops! Pediatricians
agree that brief trips outdoors are beneficial for both physical and emotional health.
Ask parents to send coats, hats, and mittens each day, and label them with each child’s
name for your sanity’s sake! Be sure to organize warm outerwear in cubbies to make
preparations for going outdoors easier. And as always, continue to foster
independence and self-help skills for your children by encouraging them to dress
themselves. Provide assistance as necessary and be sure to give them lots of praise for
their efforts!
Twos love an adventure, and the season is filled with new activities for them to try,
from sledding to snowman building. See winter’s wonders from their excited, curious
perspective and get a fresh look at the world in January!
Happy Teaching!

Unit Theme: “Snow, Snowflakes, and Ice”
Introduction
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! Whenever we think of
winter, regardless of where we live, we often think of snow.
Two-year-olds will especially enjoy playing in and
experiencing this cold substance. They’ll hear new words –
“winter,” “cold,” “snow,” “snowman,” and “snowflake” –
and see a snowman grow before their little eyes (even if there’s
no snow to be found).
And if you don’t have the magic of white snow falling in your area during the winter
season, you can create your own “Winter Wonderland” with crafts, activities, and
imagination!
So bundle up and get ready to enjoy the week with your twos!
Strive to meet the following objectives this week:
•
•
•
•

This week, turn your classroom into a “Winter Wonderland.” Cover
an area of the floor with white butcher paper. Caution: Use a low traffic
area where tripping and slipping hazards won’t be a problem! Hang snowflake
cutouts from the ceiling. Create snowmen and snowballs to hang on the walls. Spray
canned “snow” onto windows around the room and use poly filling to create snow on
windowsills and shelves.

Room Enrichment Ideas
If you currently use a calendar with the children, now is a good time to
begin to teach them basic patterning skills with the calendar. Use two
different shapes as day markers. Snowflakes could be even numbers
and snowmen odd numbers for the month. The first pattern you will be teaching the
children is snowflake, snowman, snowflake, snowman, snowflake, snowman.
Another good idea for this month is to hang snowflakes from the ceiling. On the
bulletin board, have a background of a blue sky and white snow. Leave the rest blank
to be decorated by the children’s art as they make it!

“Winter Wonders”
With snow, ice, and frosty weather everywhere, winter is a magical time of
year! Whether your snowflakes are made from ice, glitter, or just paper,
the winter can be fun wherever you are. This month, as the children get
started in a brand-new year, we’ll take a look at the wonders of winter.
We’ll start off with a chance to make New Year’s resolutions and then
explore the beauty (and science!) of snow. Then we’ll look at other winter
wonders, from the winter wear we don to the winter animals that thrive in
the cold.
Our Character Education this month will focus on patience, and schoolage students certainly have many opportunities to practice that trait! As
they interact with each other and work in centers, recognize and praise
patient behavior. Create a “Patient Pals” area on the wall or bulletin board
and put a basket of precut snowflakes under it. Encourage the students
to acknowledge the patience they see in others by putting the name of the
“Patient Pal” and the date of his or her patient action on a snowflake and
adding it to the wall. Encourage them to work to create a “blizzard” of
“Patient Pals” on the wall!

Create a “Winter Wonderland” bulletin board. Use large sheets of
white paper to cut out mountains and rolling hills. Create a frozen lake
by covering an area with plastic wrap for a shimmering appeal. Use
blue paper for the skyline. During the week, have the children add people, snowflakes,
snowmen, skiers, ice skaters, sledders, and other decorations to the bulletin board.
During the winter, floors become extremely cold to the touch, even when the heat is
turned up high. If your area isn’t carpeted, add warm and fuzzy blankets to the chill
zone and other areas where the children are likely to sit on the floor.

Special Projects
•
Borrow a snow cone machine or crush ice in a blender. Provide
the children with different flavors of prepared flavored drink in
jugs. Supply small, plastic cups and spoons for the children to
make their own snow cones. This special treat can be available
throughout the day as the children become thirsty or ready for a tasty treat.
Remember: this activity does not replace snack; the children are simply munching
on crushed ice.
•
Build on this activity through role-playing, creativity, and imagination. Encourage
the children to make a snow cone stand. Provide a uniform for the snow cone
salesperson, money, and a cash register. Don’t forget to encourage children to add
a sign that lists the cone size, cost, and variety of flavors available!
Creative Arts
•
Snowflakes: Have the children decorate the classroom with as
many beautiful snowflakes as they can create! Here are some
different ways they can make snowflakes:
1. Cut a bell pepper in half and clean out the seeds. Encourage the
children to dip the pepper in white paint and make prints on colored
paper to form “snowflakes!”
2. Have the children cut paper into a circle. Fold the paper in half and
then in half again. Encourage them to cut out shapes, unfold once,
and cut out another shape. They can then unfold the paper to see
their snowflake!
3. Let the children bend and twist silver or white pipe cleaners to create
snowflakes.
4. Have the children “thread” small marshmallows on wooden or plastic
skewers or toothpicks and join them together to create a snowflake.
5. For an extra special snowflake, have the children fold a white paper
circle into 16ths and cut out small pieces around the edges and
corners. They can add color to the snowflakes by covering them with
glue and glitter or salt, or paint with sponges.
