I had to do this for one of my interviews!
I found it very difficult as information prior to interview was not that clear as to what they wanted.
I was asked to plan an activity for a group of children (approx 6 to 8 children) average age 2 years, the session ran for 2.5hours, we would be in a hall and the parents would be on a training session behind room dividers!
Wasn't sure if they just wanted a one off activity or whole session planned so
I planned the whole session and highlighted the main activity (finger painting). I based my session around Brown Bear book, ie: magnetic story so children could easily interact, finger painting animals in book, role play/dressing up animals. Sit'n'rides for physical play, plus construction etc., doted around the room for free play.
Didn't get the job which was Ok as it turned out that they were looking for a creche leader not a preschool leader. Even the job advert was unclear! lol.
