Clay Pens

By Tobi Meuwissen

In this resource aimed at children ages 3-5, or those who struggle with dexterity, learners will mould their own pens using clay. This task is a great way to provide a tactile experience, explore mark-making and create something which they can use. This activity would be best run in small supported groups.

Paddington Bear

Paddington Bear is a fictional character in children’s literature. He first appeared on 13 October 1958 in the children’s book A Bear Called Paddington and has been featured in more than twenty books written by British author Michael Bond, and illustrated by Peggy Fortnum and other artists.

Paddington is also animated in stop motion. Paddington himself is a puppet in a three-dimensional environment, whilst other characters are paper cut-outs. The final television special used a slightly different technique using 2D drawn fully animated characters. Wikipedia

Watch the episode below and ask children some questions about what they can see.
