Play School

Paper

Paper is an accessible and versatile material with endless possibilities for imaginative play and creativity. Young children enjoy paper art and craft activities such as collage, painting, drawing, folding and cutting. They also enjoy using paper to play games, such as pass-the-parcel, and to make dress ups, such as elephant ears, pirate hats, party hats and horse tails. This week in Play School we use paper to make a cubby house for the toys, a kite, paintings, paper chains, paper hats, a newspaper, cards and much more! We also make our own paper to demonstrate the importance and practice of recycling this valuable resource. Each day this week we ask you to imagine, what "If All the World Were Paper"? This question is posed in the song sung every day at the Paper Calendar.
