Descrierea activității (pas cu pas)

Pregătire:

Introduce the board game and explain the basic rules (roll the dice, move forward, complete the task on the square).

Explain that the game is about learning and talking about media — things we read, watch, listen to, or create.

Implementare:

Children take turns rolling the dice, moving their token, and answering or acting out the task on the square.

Encourage group participation and discussion ("What do you watch?", "Who reads to you?", "What sounds do you hear on the radio?").

Continue until everyone reaches the end of the board or completes a round together.

Reflecţie:

End with a short reflection: "What did we learn about media today?"

Variații și idei suplimentare

Children can help design new squares or questions for future rounds.

Informații generale și perspectivă didactică

Board games offer an engaging, social way to introduce media literacy concepts in early childhood. Through play, children develop vocabulary and begin to understand that media come in different forms and serve various purposes. The game encourages communication, cooperation, and reflection - key foundations of lifelong media competence. It also promotes shared learning experiences between children and adults, helping to build a positive media culture at home and in kindergarten. By combining movement, imagination, and conversation, the activity turns abstract ideas into joyful exploration.
