Beach Sensory Messy Play ποΈπ
The children had lots of fun exploring our beach-themed sensory messy play tray! They enjoyed investigating the different textures and materials, including shells, sand, stones and water, while discovering the sea creatures and other objects hidden within the tray.
The children used their senses to explore, scoop, touch and investigate, encouraging curiosity, imagination and lots of wonderful sensory experiences. It was lovely to see them engaging with the activity and having so much fun exploring our little beach scene! πβοΈπ

The dolphins and turtles had lots of fun playing with the parachute in the garden this week. They worked together to bounce the ball around the parachute and enjoyed throwing it up into the air before running underneath to get to the other side. It was lovely to see them taking turns, cooperating with one another and developing their teamwork skills while having lots of fun.

Next week : we are going up, up and away into the world of flight!
We will explore aeroplanes, helicopters, birds, hot air balloons and rockets!
We are looking forward to role play a journey on an aeroplane, packing our bags and being cabin crew!
In the garden we will observe birds, learn how they fly and talk about the skies above us.

The Starfish Group loved their recent walk to the beach! ποΈπ
The gentle sound of the waves crashing onto the sand created a lovely, calming atmosphere. Our little Starfish enjoyed listening to the relaxing sounds of the sea, and it wasnβt long before some of our babies drifted off into a peaceful sleep. ππ΄β¨

This week the babies went for a lovely walk towards the cliff tops. Along the way we spotted the goats, and the babies couldnβt stop waving and saying βhelloβ to them! ππ
We then found a shady spot underneath a tree for our picnic. We enjoyed some breadsticks while looking out over the beautiful sea. It was a wonderful morning full of fresh air, smiles, and exploring together. π³π₯π

Friday afternoon, we had so many beautiful butterflies in our garden. The children loved carefully catching them, observing them up close, and then gently releasing them back into nature. We had such a wonderful time watching these amazing little creatures together. π¦π
