Book: There Was A Cold Lady Who Swallowed Some Snow by Lucille Colander
We have played many things in dramatic play this year, but something new has been bubbling up and many children want to play superheros or princesses with villains. Some children have said that could be dangerous and wondered how we could get rid of the villains without really hurting someone. A small group of children came up with an idea to make characters and hang them on the wall, in place of pretending they were villains. Several children began making these on Tuesday and the work continued today. It has blossomed into not just villains, but other characters that they want in their play. There was also a sharing at morning meeting with the whole group and we took a walk around the space to see their work in progress.
