Offer Excellent Training We see the finest type of dra- matic expression in young children under five or even at seven or eight, when they improvise while playing with their dolls and toy animals, either alone or with other children. One child may be "playwriter," stage director and actor. He may take the place of one character, then of another or assign a real playmater-or tay to the other parts A lavorite drama of ciidren in the early grades is playing school or some family experience. Isn't it too bad that ehildren rarely im- provise sucht dramas at school? PRIMARY GRADES Children of the primary grades it seems, do not dramatize their reading lessoms in regular class- work as they did some years ago. Maybe the reasom is that modern books are so generally built around the here and now and realism, in contrast with the folklore and fan- ciful stories which appeared in readers used in the twenties or thirties. One might raise the ques- tion whether the naodern primary child has sufficient stimulation of imaginaton and opportunities to dramatize. In the upper grades and high school there has been, it seems to me, a wholesome practice of putting on, in assembly, dramatic performances and puppet shows worked out in the classroom. These assembly performances often mot- ivate wide creative activities in art and craftsmanship. Also, some parents cooperate in helping chil- dren at home to make costumes and stage materials. Teachers in the upper grades sometimes put on plays with chil- dren for the amusement of Parent- Teacher groups. Some dramatic talent may thus be found and de- veloped. But, unfortunately, par- ents, principal and even the teacher often expect a highly-finished per- formance. This may prove unduly costly in time for the children who must attend so many rehearsals and in wear and tear on the teacher. Kight now dramaiic ciubs in high schools are putting on, or getting ready to put on, plays. Some of them ar epretty artisticly done, too Obviously, they usually have much higher educational value than long- rehearsed plays by elementary school children Certainly we parents should warmly show appreciation of the public plays by these youths. GOOD PLAYS In helping our adolescent chil- dren and their teachers find good plays tvhich are royalty-free, we must be familiar with those that are available. Two good volumes of such have just appeared by Plays, Inc., Boston -- 'Mystery Plays for Young People," by John Murray, and "Radio Plays of Fam- ous Stories," by Lewy Olfson. (My special bulletin on the young child and his imagination may be had by sending a self-addressed, stamped envelope to me in care of this newspaper.)
