The one-day course entitled ‘Battle Stations’ has been launched this summer to support practitioners in promoting positive approaches to children’s fascination with superheroes and weapons.
Delegates attending the course will consider the importance of superhero play in the lives of young children, including how to channel it positively and use it as a tool to extend thinking and learning skills and foster imaginative development. The training will also evaluate a range of children’s literature and resources with a superhero theme and its potential for developing a range of skills within the EYFS.
The course also covers strategies for developing a range of cross-curricular learning opportunities from superhero play, and how to bridge the gap between the culture of home and early years settings to support the emotional well-being of children.
