June party project for kindergarten and elementary school

The best ideas, suggestions and templates ready for your Pjunina party project for elementary and early childhood education.

The Festas Juninas is a strong tradition, in which the promotion of popular culture is at the center of the circle. Historians claim that the festivity arose with this name because it took place during the month of June. Another version says that the festival originated in Catholic countries in Europe and, therefore, would be a tribute to Saint John.

Quadrilhas, bonfires, popcorn and colorful flags are some of the elements that gain space in the streets, cities and schools in the month of June. Although they are celebrated in the four corners of the country, it is in the Northeast that the Festas Juninas gain great expression. Due to the long periods of drought in the region, the festivities are a time to give thanks for the rare rains that fall in those lands.

Festa Junina arrived in Brazil through the Portuguese, in the colonial period, bringing influence from different countries in Europe and Asia. The scheduled dance, which inspired the creation of the square, would have come from France; China's tradition of setting off fireworks; the dance of ribbons, from Spain and Portugal. These and other cultural expressions mixed with African and indigenous cultures resulted in what we know today as the Brazilian Festas Juninas.

And thinking about all this, and also ways to make it easier for you, we decided to make these templates available ready for your project junina party at school, check out:

Suggestions of Activities for your Festa Junina project

three foot race

Mark a place of departure and another place of arrival. Participants are brought together in pairs. With a ribbon, one's right ankle is tied to the partner's left ankle. Given the signal, the participating pairs must run until the finish. The pair that arrives first wins.

Junina Party Activities – Ring Game

Plastic soda bottles are filled with water, and a pitch line is marked about 1.5 meters away. Each participant must receive rings for the correct attempts. Whoever hits the necks of the bottles with the most rings wins.

Art:

Connect the dots and paint the design:

The ball in the country went until the sun came up the house was full, you could barely walk.

Find words in the search for words related to the June festivals. Cover them.

Let's count how many elements there are in each set and paint the square with the corresponding number.

Look at this illustration and find out which objects are missing.

Mark with x the drawings that do not belong to a June party.

Play Suggestions and Dynamics

donkey's ass game

• This game is a lot of fun. We use a donkey drawn from wood or cardboard. The participant must, blindfolded, place the tail on the donkey in the right place. The participant must be rotated a few times to lose the reference.

dropping cans

• Just place several empty cans on a wall. Participants try to drop the cans by throwing balls made out of socks. Whoever drops the most cans wins.

elegant mail

• Play organizers serve as intermediaries in delivering tickets with messages of love, friendship, flirting or just play.

tallow stick

• This game is almost always present in all Festas Juninas. Party organizers place a large tree trunk in the ground. Some type of wax or ox tallow is passed on this trunk. On top of the tallow stick, a gift of value or a bill of money is placed. The game is interesting, as most participants are unable to climb and slip.

pot breaker

• A fine ceramic pot is filled with sweets and mints. This pot is tied to a wooden beam. The participant (usually a child), blindfolded, and armed with a long wood will try to hit and break the pot. When that happens everyone can run to get the treats.

Egg on spoon race

• A chicken egg is placed in a tablespoon. Participants must reach the finish line carrying the spoon with the handle in their mouth, without dropping the egg.
