„Today I played Pharoah!“
Children love to dress up and act – albeit not necessarily before a large crowd and with assigned roles. Rather, they prefer to play on their own, unwatched, with their siblings and friends. Biblical stories too can be used for spontaneous acting out, as they contain a multitude of different roles for children of all ages and sizes. This method, called “Expressive Acting from Own Experiences” (or sometimes “Jeux Dramatiques”) allows everyone to join in, even the most hesitant or shy, whether physically or mentally challenged. Coloured scarfs and other simple props help to transform anyone into their chosen role.This volume presents 11 outlines for acting out stories from the Old and New Testaments for use in children´s services, family recreations, nursery school or school surroundings. Each of the stories has a short introduction as well as a series of exercises and games for “warming up,” a telling of the respective story as well as suggestions for accompanying songs and prayers. The idea and methods of “Jeux Dramatiques” are presented in very practical terms. How to best transfer the playful experiences to theological conversations with the children is explained by Petra Freudenberger-Lötz in a separate chapter.
