"JACK BE NIMBLE"

Today we recited and acted out the nursery rhyme, "Jack Be Nimble".  In addition, we discussed what the word "nimble" means; why Jack jumped over the candle quickly; why there could be a candle lit at Jack's house; what would happen if Jack jumped over the candle slowly.  We then read a silly version of this nursery rhyme where Jack's pants get burned when he jumps over the candlestick.  Be sure to ask your child what the pants smelled like!!
