We worked with the Children’s Theatre Company to bring you a set of tip sheets that present theater-based games and activities for use in your work with young children. Our evidence-based tip sheets for early childhood professionals break topics down into two parts: theory (Introducing It) and practice (Applying It). Introducing It: The Benefits of Theater Exercises for Social-Emotional Learning takes the Minnesota Department of Education’s five Social and Emotional Learning competencies as a starting point. It explains how theater exercises involve skills that are part of those competencies. Applying It: Theater Games and Activites for Young Children shares a theater-based lesson plan developed by the Children’s Theatre Company. Download these free resources below!
