lesson plan for 1 year olds?

Question

I just got my own class at a daycare and i have 6 kids 1 year to a year and a half years old. I need ideas for lesson plans for them. I've never done this before so i don't know where to start. Any help would be wonderful!!!! the lessons plans have a theme each week -- first week is camping, 2nd sports, 3rd zany zoology (WHAT IS THAT) marine life, and cooking adventures -- i need to figure out social learning for each day of the week so 5 of each theme--- i got story time figured out, i got art figured out and i have music/movement figured out but social learning for those themes im not sure what to do

Social learning may refer to gather the children together for a social activity. For example, for camping, you can gather a prop box with camping items to play with. Fill a cooler with a tent, blanket, play food, toy lantern, etc. Allow the children to explore and play with those items as as group. Put the tent up and allow the kids to play and explore it.

Sports - Get a bunch of balls and a box, encourage all the kids to gather around and toss the balls in the box.

Marine life - Fill a sensory bin with sand and toy marine animals. Get fake aquarium plants, shells, plastic fish, etc.

Cooking - have a cooking project. At 12 months you need to pick easy recipes. Cook with the kids, allowing them to help pour ingredients and mix. Cover the bowl with cling wrap and poke a spoon through to keep little hands out.
