We have been reading the story Whatever Next! by Jill Murphy. In the story Baby Bear makes his own rocket and goes to the moon. We gathered the same resources and recreated the journey to the moon.
The children took on different roles within the scenario and were able to switch roles. They were excited to be Baby Bear and be caught in the rain.
There was even some problem solving going on with some children finding a better hat because it didn’t have holes in.
