I joke with the kids during any activity they are driving a car or boat, or in this case hot air balloon, that I need to see their driver's license! The children hold out the palms of their hands for me to take a look at the driver license they are pretending to hold. This last week two of the children I have in class before I could make my usual joke said "Nope, Miss Heidi we don't have our driver license--Are you going to tell our parents?" They both got huge smiles and we all shared some very good belly laughs! I said "Well it depends on what kind of a driver you're being today!" to which they replied "Oh, we are crazy drivers today!" Not only did they drive the hot air balloon like "crazy drivers" but they told me how many microchips they collected and what they picked up for the mission along the way during our end circle time! Having fun and boosting memory and story retention skills... What more could you ask for?
