Lesson Plan Ideas for Your Philippines Global Sprouts Kit

Exploring the Philippines with your child is an adventure full of color, culture, and fun! Now it’s even easier with our downloadable lesson plan set designed just for parents. These lesson plans take the guesswork out of teaching and give you ready-to-go activities that connect directly to your Global Sprouts Philippines kit.

Here’s a peek at what you’ll find inside (and how to make the most of it at home):

1. Daily Life: Sari-Sari Store

Inside your lesson plan: Role play a sari-sari store, practice counting with pretend money, and talk about what it’s like to shop in the Philippines.

Parent Tip: Extend the fun and set up a mini store at home with snacks or toys!

2. Nature & Landmarks: Chocolate Hills & Tarsiers

Inside your lesson plan: Learn about the world-famous Chocolate Hills through storytelling, tracing activities, and counting games. Meet the tarsier, a tiny primate with huge eyes, through photos and creative comparisons.

Parent Tip: Ask your child what the Chocolate Hills remind them of! Is it ice cream, scoops of rice, or chocolate kisses?

3. Language: Tagalog for Children

Inside your lesson plan: Simple Tagalog vocabulary flashcards, matching games, and I Spy prompts.

Parent Tip: Don’t worry about perfection, it’s all about trying new sounds together!

4. Food & Math: Chicken Adobo

Inside your lesson plan: Trace the chicken adobo illustration, then cook (or pretend cook) together while counting spoonfuls of ingredients.

Parent Tip: Cooking is both math and memory-making. Let them help with small steps.

5. Art & Celebration: Parol Craft

Inside your lesson plan: Step-by-step directions to make a parol lantern, just like families do in the Philippines for Christmas.

Parent Tip: Hang your finished parol somewhere special! Children love seeing their art displayed.

6. Movement & Music: Tinikling Dance

Inside your lesson plan: Learn about the traditional bamboo dance with safe, child-friendly movement ideas.

Parent Tip: Keep it lighthearted. Jumping, stomping, or even clapping along to a beat counts as a win!
