🔥 Hot and ❄️ Cold

Introduction

Hello, little explorer! Today we will feel Hot and Cold. We will see, hear, and count them. Let’s have fun!

1. Hot Things

  • The Sun is Red, Bright, and Hot. ☀️
  • A Cup Of Soup is Steamy. It says “Whoosh‑whoosh” as we blow on it.
  • A Fire Truck makes a “Vroom‑vroom” sound and feels Warm, Warm, Warm on our hands.

Count Together: 1 sun, 2 soups, 3 fire trucks – all Hot!

2. Cold Things

  • The Snowflake is White and Cold. It says “Crunch‑crunch” under our boots.
  • A Glass Of Milk is Cool. It makes a “Slurp‑slurp” sound.
  • The Ice Cream is Blue‑white and Cold. It says “Shhh‑shhh” as it melts slowly.

Count Together: 1 snowflake, 2 milk glasses, 3 ice creams – all Cold!

Simple Activity – Feel the Temperature

  1. Find a Warm toy (like a soft blanket).
  2. Find a Cold toy (like a smooth stone from the fridge).
  3. Hold each one and say “Hot, Hot, Hot” or “Cold, Cold, Cold.”
  4. Clap Once for hot, Twice for cold.

Feel, say, and clap – you are a temperature detective!

How Volcanoes Form

From Magma to Mountain

Volcanoes grow where tectonic plates collide or drift apart. Heat melts rock into light, buoyant magma that rises, cools, and hardens near the surface, building the cone layer by layer.
