Final film in the series devoted to “Creative Leisure’. The children see the culmination of their work then they assemble scenery and puppets for the staging of their play. The children paint the backdrop and throne; gather leaves and stalks for scenery; and make baskets, fishing line, and table as props before staging their puppet play “Snow White and Rose Red.”
