Meditative story
|
Steps:
The children settle down,
first they experience absolute darkness, then the effect of the coloured
light on the walls, on their skin and their clothes. They describe the
effect, try different light combinations and decide which one makes them feel
best.
|
Scientific Explanation:
Concerning the mirror ball: When the small mirrors are illuminated,
they produce a pattern (breaking the light into the colours of the spectrum)
and movements (turning of the ball) on the projection surfaces.
|
Possible Variation:
The nursery school teacher tells a short story, while the children
relax in
the colour-light-room.
