Songs, stories and imaginative play for younger children

Early years performing arts can involve songs, sounds, movement and make-believe. These are creative activities for children to enjoy, with different ways to participate.

Tell a story together

Choose a familiar animal or character and imagine where it goes. Your child might add a word, a sound or a movement. Follow their interest rather than turning the activity into a performance test.

Enjoy songs and rhythm

Repeated songs can become familiar parts of a group session. Children may join with a gesture or movement before singing the words, and participation can vary from week to week.

Keep the purpose clear

Drama is not speech and language therapy, and a speech difficulty should not be dismissed as a lack of confidence. Contact Dreams to discuss the practical needs of joining Dainties; any specialist assessment or support sits separately from our performing arts activities.

For questions about your child’s first visit, contact Dreams Theatre School. Main sessions combine singing, dance and drama for ages 5–18.
