1. The name of the activity is Naulli Kulu or in my dialect Naugli Kublu.

2. Naulli kulu is a song you sing and activity you can teach to kids, you sing the song and as you’re singing the song you play out your fingers as if both your thumbs are talking to each other like puppet play, the song continues for all fingers.

3. It teaches the children which finger is which on your hand in Inuktitut or English, eg. Thumb=Kublu or Pointer=Tikiq. It also teaches children how to pretend play with your fingers as puppets and how to interact with one another.

4. An extension activity could be, drawing faces on your finger tips or using puppets, and make up a story or song with the kids using your fingers while also using the names of the fingers in either Inuktitut or English.

4. After reading, it is also the perfect time for them to go for outdoor play. The educator will help the children gather all their outdoor stuff. The children will practice getting ready just like the story and narration that they just heard and saw.
