Our First Harvest – Early Years Performance

A super-simple harvest thanksgiving performance for Early Years – three scripts, seven songs!

Our First Harvest - Children's Performance

A flexible harvest resource for Early Years, with THREE editable harvest scripts! The ‘Full Script’ is an acrostic harvest presentation with dozens of speaking parts (H is for Harvest, A is for Autumn… you get the idea), the ‘Simple Script’ is a shortened version, and the ‘Story Version’ is an assembly for an adult to read out. Add seven very simple songs and lots of extras, and you’ve got a bumper harvest resource you can’t go wrong with!

“I wanted to tell you that the children really enjoyed using these songs and the parents thought it was a great performance.”

A superb harvest thanksgiving resource for preschool! Seven simple, catchy songs the children will love to sing, with backing tracks (no need for a pianist), plus THREE editable scripts, PowerPoints and more. You get all three scripts:

(1) The ‘Full Performance’ script – a narrated rhyming script with enough lines for even the largest class, with a different subject for each letter of HARVEST: H is for Harvest, A is for Autumn, R is for Roots…

(2) The ‘Simple Performance’ script – a shortened, simplified version of the full script.

(3) The ‘Story Version’ – designed for one adult to read out, with all the best bits plus an extra story, ‘The Sunflower Competition’. Working with older children? Try H-A-R-V-E-S-T Spells Harvest.

Our First Harvest – STORY Version Sample

Most of the songs have no obvious religious references, apart from songs 5 and 7. Likewise, most of the script has no obvious religious references, although a few sections mention ‘giving thanks to God for the harvest’. These are easy to remove with the editable script, so there’s something here to suit everyone.

Very flexible – as many or as few children as you like.

Around 15-20 minutes, depending on which script and how many songs you use.

Reading the story version yourself? It needs virtually no preparation at all. Using one of the children’s performance scripts? We believe a simple version can be taught in just a few hours, and a full performance prepared in a day or two. Every group is different, though, so please listen to the songs and look through the material before deciding how much time your pupils will need.

Thanks
