During outdoor time, have the children sit in a circle. Start a “slap your lap, clap your hands, snap your fingers” pattern (SLAP>CLAP>SNAP). Explain that when the children snap, they will name a food item in the category you have chosen. For fruit, they will go around and slap, clap, and say “banana” as they snap. The next child might do slap, clap, and say “apple” as they snap.
