Worry Dolls

For book week we made worry dolls. We have also been making worry pockets. They are for the dolls to live in. We took some of the worry dolls home when we were finished. The others went into a book. To make the worry dolls we needed wool, wire, paper, hot glue and soft materials. Them we put the worry dolls in our worry pockets. They were tricky at first but then it became easier because we got used to making them. We learnt about worry dolls from a book called Silly Billy by Anthony Browne. We also learnt about a country called Guatemala. We learnt about it because the children from Guatemala used worry dolls. They tell their worries to the worry dolls and then they can forget about the worries.
