Also in messy they enjoyed playing in the textures water they told there grown ups what the textures felt like. Also in the water there were sea creatures the children talking about each creature together.We also talked about turtles such as where they live , what they like to eat and can they be on land. The children participated well and enjoyed listening to some fun facts.Preschool have been practicing to put on their shoes . Some have been able to do it all by themselves and other have needed a little support from their grown ups . Especially with the laces.In babies they have enjoyed playing in the garden with the older children .
They had so much fun playing with the loose parts pieces and kicking a football .During lunch time they enjoyed sitting on a chair at the table eating using a fork really well and ate all the pasta . Well done babies .
We have explore blueberries by using them in different ways. We have squeezed, pulled, poked and rolled them onto paper to see what different marks that could make. We then decided to do some painting with them, we smelt them and spoke about the different smells. In our tuff tray we had a Charlie and the chocolate factory theme, about blueberries. We had all the characters and preformed a story by using our imagination. This then led use to use our hands to feel the ‘blueberries’ in the blueberry station, we rolled our hands around and then watched as they sprinkled through our hands. But we can’t forgot about the chocolate fountain which was made by the umpa lumpa’s. We had great fun playing in the chocolate and even had a little taste. As the sun has been out we have spent most of our time enjoying the sunshine. We have been mark making with chalk and having been drawing rainbows , shapes and even dinosaurs!
