A little plan for play
Open interactive activity →Add to play journal →What you need
A full sheet of paper and large child-appropriate crayons.
Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.
Let's make it happen
- Draw a large oval for the body and a smaller round head at one end.
- Add ears, four legs, and a tail using lines or shapes you choose. Draw a face on the head.
- Give the dog a name and draw a favorite place for it to explore.
Adult stays beside the child and helps with shapes if invited. Observe unfamiliar dogs from a safe distance.
