Series 306: Faces and Feelings

In this series of Play School we use a diverse range of stories, songs, craft and play to explore faces and feelings.

The human face is a first and most significant focus for the new born infant. Faces are full of life and variation and can show that someone is interested and responsive.

As young children grow and develop they begin to understand the ways in which faces can reflect thoughts and feelings and how they can use their own faces to express their own feelings. Greater understanding of facial expression and the feelings of oneself and others can help young children to learn to identify and respond positively to the feelings of others.

Come along as we make things for the Play School portrait gallery, play dress ups, meet some rabbit visitors, make a baguette crocodile and much more. We also look through the windows as children introduce us to some special faces in their lives.

IDEAS FOR LATER

- Dress up your toys for going out. Are they going to the park? The shops or on a trip to the moon? Some foil is useful for making astronaut clothes for your toys.

- Have a look in the mirror and check out your nose. Look at some animal pictures in books or on the internet. See what different shaped and sized noses you can find. Which animal has the biggest nose? Which animal has the longest nose?

- Make some masks! Draw different faces with different expressions on some cardboard and cut them out to make masks.
