Drama games are not staged plays but a dynamic form in which children explore their minds and the world around them. They can use their play-acting in sensory games, pantomimes, story games with puppets, in creating masks and costumes, and much more. Drama games allow children to get more in touch with themselves and what they want to be, and are a delightful way to discover the freedom, creativity, and expression of acting- and living. The SmartFunActivity series encourage imagination, social interaction, and self-expression in children. To make the books easy to use, games are marked according to appropriate age levels, length of play time, and group size, using helpful icons. Most games are non-competitive and none require special skills or training. The series is widely used in homes, schools, daycare centers, clubs, and summer camp.

A fun, dynamic form of play, drama games help children explore their imaginations and discover their own creativity. By improvising a wide variety of scenes and situations, participants learn to express themselves physically and emotionally while gaining increased awareness of the feelings and experiences of others. Drama games also offer a wealth of possibilities for all kinds of group and educational play. The games can be led by parents, teachers, camp leaders, day-care providers and other group leaders. Participants gain as much as they contribute, and the games change every time they are played. A follow-up to the popular 101 Drama Games for Children, this book contains completely different games to take children's imaginations -- and those of their leaders -- in countless new directions.
