Group: pairs or individually
Materials: any natural materials, string (optional), clay (optional)
Kids make a
shelter/home for a small creature. It could be for a fairy, troll, mini beast or
any other creature of their imagination. Materials could include only natural
items found on the forest floor or the leader could bring out some clay, wire or string in addition.
Extensions:
Kids could make their own mini
creatures out of clay.
Write or tell a story about the creature that lives
in their house and what it’s like to live as a small creature in a big world.
I did this in the summer with a group of day camp kids. Some of them could spend a long time happily working on their mini homes.
