An Introduction to Persona Dolls
Persona Dolls promote: - Speaking and listening skills What are Persona Dolls? Persona Dolls and their stories are engaging and powerful tools, which can be used for exploring, uncovering and confronting bias with young children. |
 |
They help children to express their feelings and ideas, think critically, challenge unfair treatment and develop empathy with people different from themselves.
Though fun to use, Persona Dolls are not toys, and represent real people. They are almost child-sized and are introduced to the children as visitors.
Get in touch today if you would like Persona Dolls to visit your school.
