Instructions
Encourage children to create plays about germs and cavities.
Build a theatre out of boxes or use tables.
Include signs, places to sell tickets, programs, and other things that will help children act out the play.
Children can be the actors as germs, teeth, toothbrushes, etc., or they can use puppets. Build off of circle time lessons to support role taking and development of a script.
