We have started to talk about the story of Esther as we anxiously await the arrival of Purim. The Shamayim children have enjoyed hearing the tale from "long ago" about Esther and Mordecai and, of course, Haman - booooo!!!!
We made Purim puppets on Monday of Esther, Mordecai, King Ahashverosh and Haman. Some children focused on just one of the characters while others made all four.
When Rosie and Bennet had finished making their puppets, they moved to the rug. The used the legos to build a jail for "bad" Haman! Great creativity!!
Josh told me he had a nice Haman because his was smiling!
ReplyDeleteAt home, we made a puppet theater out of a cardboard box and used Grayden's puppets to tell the story of Purim.
