Note to Instructors and Parent(s)/Guardian(s)
This activity book is designed as an ancillary resource to the Sunbeam curriculum. It is important that
Adventurers learn through all their senses, so singing, smelling, listening, and activities that require
movement should be of primary importance in your program.

Collecting the completed pages and binding them together (with a stapler, yarn, or in a binder) at the
end of the year will provide a keepsake for the children to remind them of their year as a Sunbeam.
