Discovering holidays and rituals with picture cards

When there is something to celebrate already the very young are among the party. Of course: they always want to know what is actually going on! These new picture cards for the narrative theatre (Kamishibai) help children to find an approach suitable for their age to the core ideas of our holidays and rituals in a creative way and cheerful community. Thus they see in the strip cartoon for St Martin's day how Emma and Paul make lanterns. They encounter St Martin himself on his horse and when Paul looses his Weckmann, the traditional German bread roll shaped like a gingerbread man, Emma offers consolation to her sad friend and shares her own treat with him…Thanks to the generous and meticulously designed DIN-A-3 illustrations, this set of picture cards is particularly suited for any action in a crèche, nursery school, parent-child-group or Children's Church. Furthermore, it encompasses a helpful overview of all picture cards and text samples. This set is an ideal companion to the new Don Bosco series "Children Celebrate Holidays and Rituals."
