Print the supplementary material (click to open in a new window) and hand it out. A not very large group of children (4 or 6) put the monkey-masks on (from the supplementary material) and act as if they were monkeys in shut in the cage of a zoo (behind a chair, or something like this). Another group of children will be visitors of the zoo. The visitors enjoy watching the monkeys, they try to touch them and talk to them in a loud way. The monkeys try to catch the hand of the visitants when they are between the heavy bars. Something dangerous can happen: the monkeys can get nervous because of the noises from the children (although these noises usually are kind); they can feel we are bothering them and then become dangerous for us: they can catch our hands, pull our hair or even bite us.
Children will propose their own ideas to answer these questions; we can help them though:
