OMG please help I have to plan an activity to promote children's awareness of diversity and differences i.e. cultures, countries, food.
I was going to do music from different countries and talk about the sounds and rhythm but the CD I was going to use is rubbish.im stuck now please help.my assessor is coming Tuesday so need to get a move on!

Hi,

Depending on the age group you are working with could you do an activity on languages? Perhaps they could make new signs for the setting, like drawing around their hands, painting them in different colours and writing 'hello' and their names in different languages?

Also diversity and differences could include reading a story on a child with a disability, perhaps then you could do a session on the awareness of disabled people, like a role play for example?

Hope this helps :thumbsup:

I'm at a pre school setting so 2-4 year olds. Yeah I was thinking of reading them a story about differences etc.
many thanks

why dont you do a food tasting activity eg chinese - spring rolls noodles etc

Activity all went well. read Handas surprise and followed with fruit tasting. Kids loved it and assessor thought it was good too as it also covered the senses.Really pleased.
