Children's Creative Theatre

We had a special guest storyteller today with a background in Children's Creative Theatre. With the use of puppets, he told the classic story of Goldilocks to the children.

He did several theatre games related to the story. This involved role play to stimulate imagination and creativity.

With the preschoolers, he also did some pre-math pattern exercises.
i.e. #, *, #, *, #... what comes next? (only it was related to the Goldilocks story to make it more fun, relevant, and engaging)
i.e. size relationships: small, smaller, smallest, etc. with the bowls of porridge and beds in the story

The children thoroughly enjoyed it. :-)
