Saudi Doll · Original activity sheetThree pictures of kindness
Ages 4–6, with an adult · 10–15 minutes
Explore: Name feelings and sequence a short story.
Materials: This sheet and a pencil or age-appropriate crayons.
- Read with an adult: “An imaginary friend left their book at home. Another friend noticed their sadness and asked how to help.”
- Draw the friend's face before help in the first box. Name the feeling aloud or point to it.
- In the second box, draw a kind way to help: sharing a book or telling an imagined story.
- Draw the ending in the third box. Tell your partner the pictures in order; they can write your words for you.
Beginning: my friend's feeling
Middle: a kind action
Ending: what changed?
Talk together
- How can we ask what a friend needs instead of guessing?
- Could there be another kind ending?

Saudi Doll · Original activity sheetA neighborhood for everyone
Ages 7–9, adult-guided · 20 minutes
Explore: Think about cooperation and access for everyone; this is not a real map.
Materials: This sheet and a pencil; colors are optional.
- Imagine a neighborhood with no real address. Draw a library, a garden, and a quiet place in the first space.
- Connect the places with paths. Add a bench, shade, and a route a wheelchair user could take.
- Choose two fictional characters. Draw or write what each needs in the second space; do not use children's names or addresses.
- Ask your partner to describe a journey between two places. Improve one route and explain the change in the third space.
My imagined map
Two characters' needs
One change and why
Talk together
- Who might find the route difficult, and how could we ask what helps?
- How could we allow both quiet time and play?

Saudi Doll · Original activity sheetAn imagination & questions notebook
Ages 10+, discuss with an adult · 20–30 minutes
Explore: Distinguish imagination from information and plan respectful fact-checking.
Materials: This sheet and a pencil. An adult-selected reference book is optional; no internet needed.
- Read this example: “A character imagined a library on a cloud. Then they wondered: how do people care for their books?” The first sentence is imagination and the second is a question, not a historical fact.
- Write three lines about an imagined place in the first space. Do not present imagination as a real description of a city or community.
- Write two questions needing verification in the second space, such as: what are books made from, and who helps preserve them?
- With an adult, choose a book or suitable specialist for each question. In the third space, note the source title and page if read, or write “not yet checked.” Do not invent an answer or attribute it to a whole community.
Three lines of imagination
Two questions to check
Source and next step, or “not yet checked”
Talk together
- What can we freely imagine, and what needs a source?
- How can we respect different experiences without generalizing one person's story?
