Nehal Auntie - 7 and 8 yrs – 7 July 2007 – Is ice-cream really ‘Natural’?

 

Today I took Mini's session. The session's theme was "Natural or man-made?". The session started with a game where in Genies made one single tower using building-blocks. This was just warm-up for the activities that were to follow.

 

In the stimulation round, we played a game "Fire in the mountain". In this game they were stimulated by questions such as "Can anyone make the sun?"

 

After the break, we played a game where in we passed around a dice with pictures of natural and artificial things on its sides and let Genies distinguish between the two. Similarly, in the next game we passed around a book with natural and artificial pictures, and let Genies distinguish between the two.

 

In the last activity, Genies were given option to either (a) choose and cut pictures of natural and artificial things from news-papers/magazines – and make a collage (b) draw pictures of natural/artificial things from their imagination.

 

That was the end of the day.
