From the world of imagination: a day in the park with preschool students
On a sunny morning a group of preschoolers went to the park with their teachers. Two students, Arthur and Peter, after playing a lot in the park with their toys, found a large cardboard box that was in the school’s recyclables. Arthur looked at Peter and with bright eyes of joy exclaimed:
“Peter, why don’t we take this box and build a spaceship so we can travel to space and visit different planets?”
Without hesitation, Peter ran enthusiastically toward the box and carried it in his arms gave it to his friend.
Under the watchful eyes of the class, Arthur and Peter decided to tore the back of the box, and suddenly the object looked like a sleigh. Then Arthur, looking at Peter, suggested:
“Our spaceship is almost done; now all we have to do is to add fuel.”
So Peter started collecting some sand with his bucket and dumped it into the box. Excited, he turned to Arthur and said:
“All set. Countdown to takeoff!”
Holding a branch in his hands, Arthur sat at the front of the “spaceship” and, with the help of his co-pilot Peter, began to announce aloud to the other children in the park:
“Guys, we’ll visit other planets with our spacecraft. Who wants to go with us? Come on take your seat and let’s take a trip!”
Little by little, other children began to sit down in a row inside the box and, with the help of the teachers, started the countdown to launch:
“10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2,1. Takeoff”.
Laughing, the children began to wave to the teachers and to the other students in the park, saying:
“Bye, bye, see you later!”
“Bye, bye guys. Have a safe trip and have fun, teachers replied”.
And this was undoubtedly an amazing trip around the world. From the world of imagination…
