Months of the Year

Meet the 12 Mice!

Once upon a time, there were 12 little mice living in a cozy barn. They loved to wiggle through tiny holes and sniff around for yummy cheese. Whenever they found a piece, their noses would twitch with excitement. “Cheese, cheese, cheese!” they would chant happily. A tasty cheese meal was all they wanted!

The Mice and Their Names

These 12 mice had special names. They were named after the 12 months of the year! Can you guess their names? Here they are: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, and December.

Finding Their Way Home

One day, while nibbling on cheese, the mice saw a sneaky cat! They quickly scurried back to their home. But oh no! The forgetful mice couldn’t remember which door was theirs. There were doors numbered one through twelve, and they were scratching their heads in confusion. Can you help them find their way home?

Ordering the Months

To help the mice, let’s put the months in order:

  • January is the first month.
  • February is the second month.
  • March is the third month.
  • April comes next, followed by May.
  • The sixth month is June.
  • July is the seventh month.
  • The eighth month is August.
  • September is the ninth month.
  • The tenth month is October.
  • November comes next, and December is the last month.

Home Sweet Home

Thanks to your help, the 12 mice found their way back home, safe and sound, just a few inches under the ground. They were so happy to be back!

  • Can you think of a special event or holiday that happens in each month? Which month is your favorite and why?
  • If you were one of the mice, which month would you like to be named after? What makes that month special to you?
  • Imagine you are helping the mice find their way home. What clues or ideas could you use to remember the order of the months?
  1. Month Matching Game: Create a set of cards with the names of the months and another set with numbers from 1 to 12. Mix them up and challenge the children to match each month with its correct number. For example, January with 1, February with 2, and so on. This will help reinforce the order of the months.

  2. Monthly Weather Chart: Encourage the children to create a weather chart for the current month. Each day, they can draw a picture of the weather (sunny, rainy, cloudy) and write the day’s date. At the end of the month, discuss how the weather changed and what they observed. This activity helps them connect the concept of months to real-world experiences.

  3. Birthday Month Circle: Have the children sit in a circle and take turns saying their birthday month. As each child shares, they can stand up and form a line in the order of the months. This activity not only helps them remember the months but also builds a sense of community as they learn about each other’s birthdays.

Here’s a sanitized version of the provided YouTube transcript:

We are the 12 mice in the barn, wiggling through gaps and holes, sniffing around the shelter. When we find a delicious piece of cheese, our noses twitch with excitement. Cheese, cheese, cheese—we chant! A mouse-tastic meal is all we want.

We are the 12 mice in the barn, named after the 12 months of the year: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, and December.

When we nibble the cheese and see a cat, we don’t freeze; we scurry back home. Oh, the forgetful mice! We don’t remember where we live. We stand in front of the doors numbered one through twelve, scratching our heads and thinking in vain. Can you help us find our home again?

All you need to do is order the months of the year:
– January is the first month.
– February is the second.
– The third month is March.
– April comes next, followed by May.
– The sixth month is June.
– July is the seventh month.
– The eighth month is August.
– September is the ninth month.
– The tenth month is October.
– November comes next, and December is the last month.

We, the 12 mice in the barn named after the 12 months of the year, are back home, safe and sound a few inches under the ground.
