Humpty Dumpty Tic Tac Toe || Book “After The Fall : How Humpty Dumpty Got Back Up Again” by Dan Santat

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

All the king’s horses and all the king’s men

Couldn’t put Humpty together again

I remember teaching this nursery rhymes to toddlers in my classroom and children loved it.

Have you ever sung this nursery rhyme song with your child? It’s short, simple and fun. Let me show you how you can sing this with actions.

Humpty Dumpty by Everyday Funday

It has good lessons in itself.

Noticing the rhyming words
Comprehension / sequencing
Learning the cause & effect
Following safety rules etc.

But it is true that Humpty Dumpty story ends tragically.🫠

Yes, tragic ending happens in real world and I’m a person who doesn’t like to hide the reality and show the only pretty things to children.

BUT, it is also true that Humpty Dumpty can get back up after the fall and go beyond his past self. Right?

Book “After The Fall : How Humpty Dumpty Got Back Up Again”

Get this book and read it after teaching the original Humpty Dumpty rhymes.

In this book, Humpty Dumpty is put together by help from others but he misses going up above the city and seeing birds at the top of the wall. One day, he gets an idea of making a plane and finds a way to make himself happy again, until an accident happens again.😨 He is scared but that accident makes him to think about all the times that he spent for his plane and all the things that he has been missing. He decides to go up to the wall again and overcomes his fear. He becomes the egg who gets back up.😊

Beautiful story, right?

This is the story that we want to tell our children again and again.

Alright, now I wanna give children a chance to apply this lesson.
