We have had lots of fun this summer in Starfish. We have explored a range of activities such as ice, water play and beach themed tuff trays. The children have also done lots of garden play enjoying the beautiful sunshine we have had over the past couple of weeks. We filled up the water tray in the garden, placing blocks, cups and water wheels inside. Encouraging scooping and pouring whilst developing fine motor skills. We have learnt about putting sun cream and hats on during the hot weather, encouraging the children to keep on their hats and help us to put on their sun cream. Encouraging the children to drink plenty of water to keep them hydrated. The children have enjoyed splashing in the water tray, enjoying lots of water and ice activities to keep them cool during the heatwave. We have spoken about the sun and going to the beach. Setting up a beach tuff tray, talking about sand and sea animals, creating the different sounds they make, whilst encouraging the children to feel the different textures. We can’t wait to enjoy even more sunshine and play outside this summer!
