During large group, read The Enormous Potato by Aubrey Davis. Talk to the children about the farmer's problem – the potato is so big that the farmer can't pull it up. Ask the children for some ways that they may solve the problem. For example he can call for help, first to his wife, then to their daughter, then to the dog, and so on. Talk to the children about times when they needed help and what they did to solve their problem.
