The Word Switchers – A Shadow Play About Kindness
On May 2, 2025, the LRC Department of Delhi Public School presented an exciting shadow puppetry show called “The Word Switchers.” This creative play was part of the Fun Day celebration and delivered a strong message about using kind and respectful words.
The stage was simple—a screen, some lights, and shadow puppets—but the story was full of meaning. The students were hooked from the beginning. They watched closely as the shadow characters showed how words can hurt or heal, and how changing rude words into kind ones can make a big difference.
The story followed characters who had the power to switch their words. When they used kind words, friendships grew stronger. When they used hurtful words, problems began. The play showed how good communication and kindness can help everyone get along.
The performance was not only fun to watch but also taught an important life lesson: our words matter. The students laughed, listened, and learned—and left the show thinking about how they can use kind words every day.
