Drama & Storytelling

Peter's Chair & Oonga Boonga


You can act out scenes from Peter’s Chair or Oonga Boonga, for example:

  • when Peter hides behind the curtain

  • when Peter helps his Dad paint the chair

  • when everyone tries to get Baby Louise to stop crying

  • when Daniel says “Oonga Boonga!” and Baby Louise stops crying

  • or another part of the story that you like

If you want to remember parts of the story you can listen to them again at the top of this page!




Friday

Science and Sensory

Moving Water

In Oonga Boonga, Baby Louise cried so much that the author wrote “her tears ran like rivers to the sea.”


Get a tub or sinkful of water and experiment with making water move! Using different containers and spoons or other utensils, try moving water so it flows in different directions like a river.

Families: this is an open-ended activity. It is ok to set your child up with a dishpan or sink or tub full of water and let them experiment.

Outside Time

Outdoor Leaf Hunt 2

Friday is a great day to go outside! You can do a leaf hunt, play in the leaves, or just have fun outside in the fall.
