Reading is a big part of our daily routine and it has so many benefits for young children from enhancing their concentration and understanding through to developing their language and communication as well as understanding of the community and relationships. With this in mind I thought it important that we mark world book day with some fun activities.
The children dressed up as some of their favourite characters that they have seen in films or books, using the experience to talk to each other about these stories. Following this they used our puppets to make up their own stories.
We also chose characters from two of our favourite books, 'the tiger who came to tea' and 'the hungry caterpillar' to do some face painting. This was a big success and led to the children really getting into their story characters!
