‘Pom Pom At The Vet’ A Fun Writing And Drawing Activity (4 years +) - Activity Pack

'Pom Pom At The Vet' is an engaging activity pack designed for children aged 4 years and older, combining writing and drawing to tell the story of a little dog's visit to the vet. Pom Pom, the central character, has unfortunately acquired a thorn in her paw while playing in the garden, and it's time for a trip to the veterinarian. Before her appointment, Pom Pom wants to ensure she looks her best, so the pack includes a fun exercise where children must order jumbled sentences to describe how she prepares for the visit. Activities include grooming her fur, bandaging her paw, putting on her collar and lead, having a wash in the shower, and cleaning her teeth with doggy toothpaste.

Upon arrival at the vet's office, children are prompted to imagine the receptionist's compliments about Pom Pom, choosing from words like 'lovely', 'gorgeous', and 'adorable'. The activity pack invites children to draw the vet's waiting room, complete with a clock to indicate the time and a variety of people and their pets, including Miss Susie Chan with Pom Pom herself. Creativity flourishes as they add their own characters to the scene. The drama unfolds with the arrival of a naughty dog, leading to a written dialogue exercise where children explore the conversation between the apprehensive pooch and Pom Pom. The pack also encourages children to write about the naughty dog's encounter with the vet, detailing his treatment and the vet's responses, and to create an invoice for the services provided. Finally, as both dogs return home, a word unscramble activity reveals the rewards they receive, such as a 'bone', 'treat', 'biscuits', and a 'new toy'.
