I gave each child two pieces of card slotted together in an X to make scenery backdrops. They could make characters to go with it. 🎭 I like the idea of crafting something that can spark imaginative play.

🌿🌱 Ever-popular: air-dry clay. This time with botanical prints and placements. They also made snowmen, boats, pots, a ‘crococopter’ (that’s a 🚁 helicopter in the shape of a crocodile…of course!) and more.

Take one pack of blank ‘people’ templates… and look at all this variety 👀 A pilot, gingerbread man, Lego, duckling and more (just a selection, I didn’t take photos of them all!) 🙌

Disguises! I have a policy of no actual faces on here so I can’t truly capture all the fun we had with these. Lots of laughter as we held our props against our faces and introduced new characters! Other ideas the kids came up with and put into action: storyboards, vehicles, signs. Our second activity was popular too: fridge magnets.
