A little video we found and watched that sparked all kinds of questions and ideas!

• what kind of bug is that?
•where can we find them?
•are they legs or arms?
•how fast can they move?

And we all enjoyed a good giggle at the little attenna bouncing up and down as he walks.

Loose parts binoculars!

The girls have all been so intrigued by the different types of birds we have seen around the pond we took the opportunity to make some binoculars to help us spot and identify more.
I love seeing how they used the different materials to decorate and make their binoculars their own.
Now we wait for this afternoon to test them out!

Taking a break from our morning bike ride to colour some chalk on the rocks. This is the kids favorite place to play beside the pond, it has rocks to climb, trees to hide and explore in and the path makes for a smooth bike ride.

Using our pincer grasps to make bean name pictures this morning.
We talked about patterns as we picked out beans to line up on the glue and practiced identifying different letters in our names. 🫘🌱

Springtime at the pond is our favorite. So many birds, ducks and butterflies this morning. The ducks kept diving into the water "playing peekaboo" with us.
