Yesterday we went to a puppet show. This is Charlie, Emilie and Isabella's recollection of one of the stories.
"There was a frog and kiwi's and the boy and the girl and the boy and the tree and the volcano and birds. They told us a story about the rat and the possum trying to get the bird's eggs to eat. We had to sing a song to tell the mama birds to go back home to their nest and scare away the possum and the rat".
The puppet show was called The Enchanted Forest and had a conservation message about looking after our forests and the creatures that live there. The puppeteers used some awesome puppets and upbeat songs to get the message across. It was an interactive performance with the children joining in with songs and actions.
With Conservation Week coming up this was a great way to introduce the children to concepts such as this.
Conservation Week runs from 11 - 18 September and we will be revisiting our learning from the show via songs and conversations with the children.
