Plan a session

Start with quiet colouring, choose a design activity, then use the social activity in pairs or small groups. For movement, use the collection’s hunt or picture-hunt option with an adult-approved route; pointing and seated participation work too. Finish by sharing an original idea.

No food preparation or live animals are required. Participation and personal examples are optional. A trusted adult, dream pet or imagined memory can replace a personal example.
