This morning our Toddlers were delighted to spot the first signs of Autumn on their morning walk. There was lots of excitement as the children collected pine cones, noticing their different shapes, sizes and textures.
Back at nursery, the children used their pine cones for a wonderfully creative mark‑making activity. They explored how the cones moved and rolled, watching the different patterns they made as they travelled through paint and down a pipe, and then experimented with rolling them across paper to see what marks they could create.
Simple natural treasures, big curiosity, and plenty of joyful learning 🍂🌿
