Silly and Nonsensical Poems

October 13, 1893: Happy Birthday to “Happy Birthday”

image from free-extras.com

You can check out some interesting facts about the “Happy Birthday” song here. The song, which the Guinness Book of World Records calls the world’s most recognized song, was published on October 13, 1893, by teachers Mildred and Patti Hill who decided to write a song (originally “Good Morning to All”) to sing with kindergartners to start each morning.

In celebration of the song’s birthday, consider using it or other simple songs for a variety of activities:


Fun with Simple Songs

Materials:

  • means for recording (optional)

Directions:

  1. “Happy Birthday” is a perfect song for experimentation since everyone knows it.
  2. Let kids try writing new words for the song.
  3. Add gestures, movement, or choreography.
  4. Sing the song repeatedly, leaving off a word each time.
  5. In a group, sing the song silently. Everyone starts at the same time and then sings the last line out loud to see if everyone’s together or not.
  6. Try varying the ways of singing, such as louder, higher, or faster.
  7. Sing the song replacing on consonant sounds with an “a.” Try again with “e” and so on.
  8. Sing the song in funny ways, like holding one’s nose, singing with one’s mouth closed, or pretending to be underwater (moving finger over lips).
  9. Sing in different genres like opera, rap, country, or rock.
  10. Sing in different moods such as happy, sad, scared, or bored.

October 12: Farmer’s Day

image from treehugger.com

In honor of Farmer’s Day, why not put together a prop box? Prop boxes are boxes of props designed for dramatic play which are built around a specific theme. Here are some ideas for a Farmer Prop Box:


Farmer Prop Box

Materials:

  • straw hat
  • overalls
  • seed packets
  • watering can
  • gardening tools
  • outdoor area for digging or a tub indoors filled with dirt or sand

Directions:

  1. This is a basic idea for a crop-oriented farm. You could also talk to kids about ideas for a farm with animals.
  2. Also consider what kinds of machinery might be needed for a farm.
  3. Talk to them about other kinds of farms.
  4. You could also investigate how farming is different in different parts of the world.

General Directions for Prop Boxes:

  1. Prop boxes are items grouped together by a theme to allow children to pretend. They can be used as specific activities or put out during free time.
  2. The materials listed above are merely suggestions. You may come up with additional ideas and leave some of these materials out.
  3. The boxes that hold 10 reams of computer paper/typing paper are a nice size for prop boxes. They can be covered with nice contact paper to make them more attractive.
  4. You might also consider a creative way of putting all the prop box materials into something that fits the theme.

Source(s): See Toolbox Training book 100 Drama Activities for Kids (activities A1-A23) for other ideas for prop boxes.

October 8: Newspaper Week (1st week of October)

image from inlandpolitics.com


Kid-Generated Program Newsletter

Children can be involved in creating a one-time or regular newsletter. This is an ideal activity for school-age programs as there are multiple ways to involve them. Consider:

  • Let kids conduct interviews. If you are part of a school-based program, that could be the principal, teachers, secretaries, specialty teachers, or any support staff. Why not give the kids a chance to gain a greater appreciation for a day in the life of a custodian or cafeteria worker?
  • Kids can take photos or draw pictures to accompany articles.
  • Let children report on upcoming events.
  • Kids could also contribute their own cartoons, jokes, or funny stories.
  • If the program has access to a computer, let older kids serve as editors and do the layout for the newsletter.
  • Why not have families contribute something such as a favorite recipe or activity they do at home? Maybe an interest piece about a pet or a favorite vacation?

October 6: First motion picture (1889)

image from swiftfilm.com

On October 6, 1889, Thomas Edison showed the first motion picture. Why not have kids make their own films?


Stop-Motion Film Making

Materials:

  • video camera
  • action figures, dolls, or other toys with movable arms and legs
  • other props to use with the toys (vehicles, furniture, etc.
  • paper
  • pencil

Directions:

  1. If you have access to a video camera, this can be an amazing activity for kids. It gives them a chance to be filmmakers and see firsthand the kind of work involved.
  2. Stop motion film making is what is used to create a kind of “live animation” style. Actual objects are moved just a little bit at a time and captured on video. When run together it makes it look like the actual object is moving.
  3. It will take lots of time, but you can get kids to create their own stop motion films. You may wish to have them “story board” their ideas first; that is, draw what they want to happen in their film.
  4. Then, kids will move a figure’s arm or leg just slightly and you will hit the record button on the video camera for just a second. Then immediately hit the pause button. Set up the next shot and continue.
  5. This will take practice before the timing is down right.
  6. Also, it may be necessary for the adult to work the camera simply because of the expense involved.

Note: this project obviously preceded digital cameras and phones. See how children can adapt this project with today’s technology.

October 5: World Smile Day (first Friday of October)

image from wristbandconnection.com

In 1963, Harvey Ball, a commercial artist from Wrocester, Massachussetts, created one of the most recognized graphics in history – the yellow smiley face. Over the years, the over-commercialization of his symbol for happiness led him in 1999 to declare the first Friday of October to be World Smile Day. The idea behind the day is to have at least one day each year to, as worldsmileday.com says, “devote one day each year to smiles and kinds acts throughout the world. The smiley face knows no politics, no geography, and no religion. Harvey’s idea was that for at least one day each year, neither should we.”

In honor of this uplifting holiday, and the fact that it is also Do Something Nice Day, ask kids to brainstorm ideas for projects or activities they can do which would bring a smile to someone else’s face.

image from blogs.ubc.ca

In celebration of the first space vehicle ever launched, kids can make their own rockets.


Rockets

Materials:

  • toilet paper rolls
  • small sheets of paper-sized cardboard
  • acrylic paints

Directions:

  1. This activity is directed toward individual table-top projects, but if you have large boxes available, let the kids create a life-sized rocket.
  2. Let kids use materials as they wish to design their rockets.
  3. To get kids thinking, ask questions like: What is the name of this rocket? Where are you going to go in this rocket? How long will it take? Are there people on this flight? If so, how many? How much food will you need? Where do you eat? Where do you sleep? How do you control the rocket ship? When is it set to launch? Has it already launched? Can you bring pets? Does it have rocket boosters? What country is it from?

October 3: Family Crests

image from whitgunn.com

October is Family History Month. This is a great chance to celebrate the wonderful diversity within American families. Celebrate families’ backgrounds by having children design family crests.


Family Crest

Materials:

  • A large piece of paper, at least 11"x14"
  • Photos
  • Crayons, markers, pencils
  • An outline of a shield
  • Glue (optional)

Directions:

  1. Discuss family crests. Brainstorm with children to get ideas that could represent their family histories or lives. Possibilities include flags to represent countries from which their families came, pictures of food common to their ethnicity, pictures to represent first or last names, drawings depicting favorite family events, and photos of family celebrations.
  2. On the large piece of paper, trace the shield or draw an outline of desired shape.
  3. Divide the shape into three or four equal sections.
  4. In each section, draw a picture that represents one idea about your family. Some children may prefer to cut out pictures from magazines or use a family photograph. Another alternative is to use a computer, since this activity can be done easily with any drawing program.
  5. Laminate the finished crests, if possible.
  6. Have children share and compare their crests.
