Our sea - Hiking!

Theme: Pirita beach in winter
Children age: 6-7 years

Objectives: The child can start games and develop game content. The child can describe the beach in winter times. The child knows rules of safe behavior in water bodies in winter.

Tools: Clothing according to cold winter day. For fishing game necessary fishing gear. And Stop sign for crossing streets.
Preparations: The teacher lets everybody know that they are going to the beach. Explains safe behavior rules. The children and teachers put on reflective vests.

Activity: The group goes to the hike to the beach. They discover snowy beach forest area. On the beach they look what is to see on horizon. Weather was cold and foggy. The sea was frozen on the beach side. Through the fog you could see a gig ship. We look and explore if it is safe to go on sea ice. From afar we could see the sea without ice.
The teacher sets limit how far the children can go on sea ice. We played two games that were leaded by teacher "Fisherman" and "Polar bears".
The children made a game themselves "Snow angels" and then thought out a game "Salt mining". The snow was gritty as a salt that day. The children game up with the comparison.

The hike went very well. The children liked running and playing on the beach.
