Play School (1966)

Mini Beasts (3) (286x3)

Data di messa in onda: Lug 03, 2013

Series 286: Mini Beasts We see insects and other small creatures almost every day of our lives. These “mini beasts” are one of the first introductions young children have to the natural world. They come in countless varieties, shapes, colours, patterns and sizes and are celebrated in favourite pre- school nursery rhymes, such as “Incy Wincy Spider”, “Ladybird, Ladybird” and “The Ants Go Marching”. In this series of Play School, we explore “mini beasts” through craft activities, play, songs and stories. We are also visited in studio by some real-life insects: slaters, snails, worms and even a stick insect! Episode 3 PRESENTERS Luke Carroll - Leah Vandenberg PIANIST Peter Dasent STORY “Slinky Malinki, Open the Door” by Lynley Dodd, Puffin Books New Zealand 1993 FILM Wildlife Montage (Play School, ABC) IDEAS FOR LATER Make a snail from play dough or clay! Roll out a long piece of play dough or clay and twist about three quarters of it into a shell shape. The rest of the play dough can be the head of your snail. Make some bugs from egg carton cells. You might like to make a caterpillar with three or four egg carton cells for a wriggly body, or an ant with just one egg carton cell for a small body. Paint your egg carton bugs and stick in short lengths of pipe cleaner for antennae.
