Today it’s lovely and cool outside so we enjoyed some morning yoga together in the garden. This is a lovely way to wake our bodies up gently to get ready for the day

As a few of our Butterflies have been on holiday lately and have loved the beach over there we have created one in our tuff tray. This type of activity enables resources for the children to act out real life experiences with their friends ✈✈✈

Seed Exploration-Before and After 😝
Our Butterflies have found this activity really interesting this morning. We have been making predictions of what type and how many seeds are in each fruit/vegetable and then investigating to see if we are right.

This activity has lengthened our language and knowledge of different varieties as pomegranates, butternut squashes and cherries are new to us.

Exploring with our senses like this can encourage us to eat a wider variety at meal times too.

πŸ¦‹ Our Butterflies πŸ¦‹ have been enjoying their new interactive board we have made.

We added pegs and string so that they can strengthen their fine motor skills while removing and putting back the pictures during and after use.

We will use our pictures as reference points when talking about spiders, while we are trying to make webs, and when we are at the play doh table. πŸ–ŠοΈ

We can even trace our pictures on the drawing table.....so many uses! πŸ‘©β€πŸŽ¨

🎢 I am a spooky spider
My name is hairy Fred
I do push ups in the morning
And jog around your bed....
Every morning when I wake up
I always bang my head......
That's because....
I live under your bed!! 🎢

We have some surprise presents waiting for our babies this morning in their tent. Our sensory basket is full of wrapped toys. We are trying to feel them guessing what is inside, and then using our fine motor skills to open them and see. We extended on this further by attempting to wrap them back up and giving them to our friends πŸš‚πŸš—πŸš› This was very tricky but kept our little minds occupied for a long time 🀩

We have been learning about how bees make honeycomb by recreating it using gloop and bubblewrap in our tray. Gloop is a lovely relaxing material to play with, it sets hard but then turns runny again with the heat of your hands 🐝🌻🐝🌻🐝
