Place four large buckets in the middle of the circle. Label them with texture words that may be unfamiliar such as bumpy, coarse, fluffy, fuzzy, spongy, rubbery, prickly, gritty, greasy, feathery, hairy, slick or grainy and include a sample next to the word. Encourage the children to look for the different textures in the room. Collect the buckets and show the children each object to see if they agree on the matching texture.This could be done in large group.
