This week’s drama activities are based on the book Harry the Dirty Dog by Gene Zion. 

Harry hates having a bath!Listen to the story to find out what happens when his family try to give him one….

Pretend to be Harry and  try out some of these drama activities

• burying the scrubbing brush in the back garden
• running away from home

 

• getting dirty by playing in the street, playing at the railroad, playing with the other dogs and going down the coal chute

 

• FREEZE FRAME (like a still picture) what Harry looked like when his family didn’t recognise him.

 

• showing his family his tricks (flip flopping, rolling over, dancing and singing)

 

• digging in the garden to find the scrubbing brush

 

• having fun in the bath while the children are scrubbing him

 

• sleeping peacefully in his favourite place
