Storytelling for Early Years and Key Stage 1 children
A seasonal celebration with story, song, dance and music and lots of participation for young children and a little bit of magic as well.
Themes: Friendship, Cooperation, Patience, Resilience, Time and Trust.
Cat has been invited to bring her friends the Dog’s party, but for different reasons, they all need to stop along the way. They arrive late and miss all the fun, so they have to make up their own games.
Cat and Dog at Christmas is a story for exploring in the classroom and retelling at home, to develop language and a love of the natural world.
