Glow in the Dark Preschool Today

Thanks to the youth group and Brian being involved with them, I had a super fun activity for the kids today at Joy School. Last night they played glow in the dark volleyball. They had well over a hundred little glow sticks that they taped to the net, the players, the ball, the outer limits of the court. They had a lot of them. When they were done with all these fantastic glow in the dark sticks Brian got to take home about one hundred for our kids to play with. Wanting to take full advantage of the glow sticks, but knowing we didn't need anywhere near a hundred at our house, I planned a lesson with them. When the kids were ready for our kindergarten prep portion of the lesson, we headed to the basement. Lights off. They were so confused. It was fun for me to pull out the glow sticks and help teach them how to make their shapes, simple letters and other fun things by using their imaginations and their glow sticks. They thought it was really, really fun and they giggled the whole time.
