Play Circle: While The Cat’s Away….
Play Circle is our monthly creative session for preschool children and their grown-ups. In July, storyteller Kevin Graal has made another short film to inspire you and your little ones to create your own Play Circle sessions at home. As ever, the emphasis is on being playful together – adults and children alike.
While the cat’s away …
A rhyme. A story. A song. Join in. Enjoy. Sing along.
Follow the adventures of 3 little mice who haven’t been let out to play for ages and are starting to feel a bit restless! Join in with a lovely but little-known tickle-rhyme guaranteed to end in giggles as the first mouse runs up the stairs. Enjoy a beautifully illustrated story about another mouse’s narrow escape. Finally, sing along with a lively rhyming song about a very curious mouse who wants to be your playmate. Then try out some of our suggestions for playful follow-up questions and activities.
