GENERAL FAIRY POPPILINA VISITS:
Oooh ‘Let’s Go On A Story Adventure’ (with Fairy Poppilina), bippbidy boppidy boo! The program includes: a greet and meet fairy style in the fairy ring, a magical flight (movement activity)*, movement-based/musical storytelling of ‘We’re Going On A Bear Hunt’, a magical odyssey: ‘The Journey Home’ by Alison Lester where children meet magical creatures throughout this imaginative story! Then, the children have the opportunity to find paper fairies in the room with a ‘fairy hunt’. Subsequently, the children are invited to make fairy houses (a simple take home craft). There is also ukelele-accompanied singing*.
*Your 0-2s may enjoy joining in during the singing time.
This is a great way to theme the previous week – discussing and preparing for a real live fairy’s visit!
ALSO – Fairy Poppilina offers a CHRISTMAS-THEMED session with all of the aforementioned but with the inclusion of Christmas stories: Santa And The Three Bears, The Princess And The Presents.
* Fairy Poppilina is a qualified children’s yoga teacher and incorporates a lot of magical movement in her sessions.
* Fairy Poppilina is also available for regular storytelling in your centre.
Fairy Poppilina has also performed for homeschool groups, mothers’ groups and playgroups ..
