History of Show And Tell At Work Day

Show and tell is the practice of showing an object to an audience and describing it to them. It is a reasonably common classroom activity in elementary school, especially in Western countries. The objects displayed are usually toys or other children-oriented items. In a regular show and tell session, children usually present an item to the rest of the class and explain why that item was selected, what it means to them, and other relevant information.

While the exact origins of the activity are unknown, one of the first references to show and tell was in the 1954 journal “Childhood Education.” The activity can help children build storytelling abilities, bridge the school and home, encourage bonds with one another, and enhance their communication skills. A teacher’s level of involvement may vary, but a 1994 research found that more involved teaching can increase the psychological benefits of the activity for students. However, show and tell has been criticized for how time-consuming and monotonous it can potentially be.

This activity, though, is usually limited to childhood in most conventional cases. To combat this fact, Show and Tell At Work Day was established by Thomas and Ruth Roy to allow adults to momentarily feel like kids again. They are the pioneers of wellcat.com and are known to begin several fun holidays such as Be A Dork Day and Embrace Your Geekness Day. Being an adult can be exhausting at times, especially if you are working hard almost every day of the week. This day aims to help us and our colleagues relive childhood fun. Show and Tell At Work Day is a nostalgic event most would definitely enjoy celebrating.
