Read Froggy Plays Soccer by Jonathan London. Ask the children if this story is real or fantasy, and why. Play finger soccer by using a small piece of clay or a balled-up piece of paper, for the soccer ball and a shoebox lid for the soccer field. Model for the children how to flick the ball with their thumb and pointer finger. Have the children take turns flicking the ball to try and make a goal.  This activity could be done in small group.
