Caveat

Through children’s tales as the main apparatus, the undergraduate students from the Children’s Literature program utilized their skills and resources from CL213 and CL312 courses to provide meaningful and inspiring experiences to a group of 28 kindergarten students between 4 and 5 years of age at Ban Khao Arng Keow school, Phetchaburi province from May 28 to May 29, 2019. A need survey of this target group was proceeded prior to the set activities. Based on the survey, various media types of the children’s tales were prepared for the set activities. Many of the media were made from cloths to accelerate the children’s micro muscle development. Such media were also deemed to activate the children’s creativity, artistic abilities and communication skills. At the end of the set activities, all of the project’s products and media were donated to the school.
