A step-by-step guide to play the game

Ask the children to watch the poster and listen to the stories of the five characters. Provide the audiostories, tell the stories yourself or let the children share what they see.

Each child chooses a favourite character.

Explain to the children that they will be drawing and colouring that character.

First ask them to draw the character and when they have completed their drawings, they can colour it.

Make sure you encourage the children to add their own creative touch to their drawings, such as adding a background or accessories for their character.

At the end all children can put their drawing on the mobile school or the wall for others to see.

Variations

When there are a lot of young children, you can provide them with the colouring page, so they don’t need to draw themselves.
