When I started as a teacher in a Chinese school, I had to make my own props for story telling as well as hundreds of educational media for teaching preschoolers. It was a gruelling task as it takes time and all my creative juices were flowing in excess to make interesting teaching materials.
One of my fave story at that time was the traditional but never dying story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. I recently resurrected my bears and Goldilocks props and took some photos for keeping in the hope that I can cherish them forever through this blog.

| Goldilocks with no golden locks, lol! |
The children always had fun listening to the story what with the moving puppets I created with toilet rolls, cloth scraps, markers and glue. Simple but very effective! Nowadays, we simply google the story and out comes a talking rendition of our all time fairy tale favourites. Effective but not as creative.
