How do you bring a group of very young children together?
You can give them a problem to solve, like "How do we get the toys out of there?"
You can draw their attention to something that they can't resist digging into...
...with tools...
...or, with their hands.
...perhaps, even with their mouths.
You can show them all something very exciting...
...and then talk about the experience together.
You can ask them to bring in something to share with the whole entire group...
...something from their yards...
...or something to eat...
Whatever we do, it seems that sharing experiences and then reflecting back on them, over, and over, and over again, takes this group of toddlers, with different ages, interests, and levels of ability, and turns them into "Frogs".
