*Have the children sit in a circle & place A4 sized photos of different breeds of puppies. Ask the children to point out the differences between each puppy, for example eye colour, fur colour, size, short or long fur etc. Ask questions of regardless of each difference would they love the puppy any less, would they be less interesting if the puppy was white or brown, just to generate a discussion. This can then lead into talking about our peers that have different coloured eyes, hair, skin & explain we are all the same but we just have differences or perhaps different beliefs etc *A fun activity could be to have the children play a game, children with blue eyes stand up, children with brown hair put your left foot in front of your right foot, children with a cat at home put your hand on your head etc... I feel this would be a fun way for the children to see differences & help them to accept their peers for their differences! …show more content…
Let the children have fun exploring what costume they would like to wear & play time to explore the differences, colours, jewels etc on each costume. Have them sit down & discuss the differences by writing a few things down about the costume, which culture it came from, are they colourful or do they have special jewels, head pieces etc. I think this is an exciting group activity to explore differences & educate the children at the same time! *Perhaps if their appears to be issues between children having a group discussion about differences can help alleviate the issues & help the children understand these differences. Books about culture, religions, disabilities etc can be a way of showing a group of children different elements to each child’s life & the differences between individuals. This can help any confusion children have & can help prepare them for future situations they may come
