Using our treasure chest

The Leapfrogs had the opportunity to look at tickets and booklets from a ballet that one of our children attended over the weekend. The ballet was at a theatre called the Adler. This started some interest in the play we had already seen and generated lots of questions.

We used materials from our treasure chest. A treasure chest is what we call the container that has items that we can create collages and representations of any kind. The children used play dough to create the stage, straws as seats, towers, and lighting. Some straws held curtains while others were cut small to make the foldable seats.

Stay tuned as we continue to create, represent, and learn more about the theatre!
