Hello everyone, we hope youโ€™ve had a good weekend! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป

Last week at preschool, the children enjoyed lots of hands-on activities and sensory play. We also celebrated Burns Night, where the children had the chance to try haggis as part of the celebrations ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ

One of our sensory trays focused on the Scottish flag ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ, using blue rice with spoons, bowls, bottles, and funnels for filling and pouring. Alongside this, we also had oats with bowls and spoons, giving the children more opportunities to scoop, pour, and explore different textures ๐ŸŒพ

Another sensory tray included giant ribbon threading with toilet rolls which the children loved! And a variety of musical instruments ๐ŸŽธ๐ŸŽน, which the children really enjoyed exploring the noises they could make.

Hello everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป
We hope youโ€™ve all had a great weekend๐Ÿ™‚
Weโ€™ve had a busy and fun week filled with lots of play, exploring and happy moments with friends!

Our sensory trays were very popular this week! The children loved the bird-themed tray, feeding baby chicks in numbered nests ๐Ÿฅ, as well as the colour matching activity and the baby washing tray๐Ÿ‘ถ๐Ÿผ

At the drawing table, the children enjoyed pencil control and number sheets, bird colouring pages, and exploring a variety of stencils with paper, creating their own designs and pictures ๐ŸŽจ.
We had lots of fun making bird feeders, binoculars and exploring leaf printing ๐Ÿƒ, giving the children plenty of opportunities to be creative and imaginative.

The children were so excited to play in the snow โ„๏ธ and had a wonderful time having fun with their friends. When the weather improved, we brought out our new parachute, which the children absolutely loved!

Indoors, the children enjoyed our new games including bouncy balls โšฝ, ribbon sticks ๐ŸŒˆ and hula hoops โญ• โ€” and we also had a disco, with lots of dancing!

Hello everyone๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป
We hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Last week was a fun and busy one at preschool as we explored maths in lots of exciting ways. The children have also been very busy creating some lovely Christmas surprises for our parentsโ€ฆ but we canโ€™t reveal too much just yet! ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ˜‰

In our sensory tray, the children enjoyed threading toilet rolls with pipe cleaners, practising their fine motor skills and creativity. We also had number and letter magnets with baking trays for the children to explore and match their numbers and letters. Our laminated shape sheets with whiteboard pens and erasers were a big hitโ€”lots of brilliant shape drawing!

We added even more maths fun with Numberblocks colouring sheets, number pencil control activities, and chalkboards with chalk for the children to practise their early writing and mark making.

At the drawing table, we focused on creativity and fine motor skills with leaf rubbing, pencil control activities, harvest counting sheets, and colouring sheets. โœ๏ธ๐Ÿ

We also got creative with apple printing, acorn finger painting, window leaf catchers, and wreath making โ€” the children really enjoyed all the activities last week and we look forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

Last week was all about families, and we had such a fun time exploring the theme together.
