Thinking hard

We watched this version of the story, 'Town Mouse and Country Mouse.'



Afterwards we were asked, "If you were a mouse, which house would you choose to live in, the Town Mouse's house or the Country Mouse's house?"

Most children said that they would perfer to live at Town Mouse's house because of all the yummy food he had at his place. Harry thought about it for a bit, and said that he would prefer to live at Country Mouse's house because there wouldn't be people coming and going all the time. It would be safer at Country Mouse's house! Some children thought about what Harry said, and changed their preference!

We had a good, hard think about which need was more important - the need for food, or the need for safety. Which do you think we thought was more important?
