Put On Your Hat (Tuesday)

Theme Notes Series 276: Put On Your Hat (Tuesday)

This week in Play School we explore the theme of “Put on Your Hat” through music, stories, craft and play. Every day this week, we visit the Play School hat shop where a hat for every occasion can be found. On Wednesday, we take a special ride with Justine as she puts on a helmet and travels to Play School on a motorbike.
Hats can also be used in dress-up and role play for young children to explore different occupations and cultural differences. The role of hats in sun protection and warmth is also featured.

IDEAS FOR LATER
- Visit a fire station. What colour are the fire fighter’s hats? Where do they keep their hats?
- Make some chef’s hats from white crepe paper and cardboard. Invite your friends over for a cooking afternoon.
- Find a box and put some hats in it. Choose a hat from the box and mime what activity a person wearing the hat would do. Another person has to guess what activity you are doing.
