Mint perfume ๐Ÿƒ One little flock brought in some fresh mint to share with her friends, we all had a good sniff and decided we loved the smell, so we thoughtโ€ฆ why not make our very own little pots of mint perfume!

We carefully picked and tore the tiny mint leaves, using our fine motor skills and strengthening those little fingers, before using tools too squish the leaves to release their beautiful scent.

Then we added water to our perfume pots using droppers. A great activity for developing hand-eye coordination, concentration and control, as well as exploring cause and effect.

A simple idea sparked by one little flock, turned into a lovely sensory experience for us all! ๐ŸŒฟ

๐Ÿ“๐Ÿซ From hedgerow to homemade ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ“

Today we went on a little berry adventure, searching for delicious wild strawberries and blackberries growing.

Once we had collected our berries, we worked together as a team to blend them up and turn our fruity finds into our very own homemade ice lollies! ๐Ÿง

We popped them in the freezer and waited patientlyโ€ฆ and they were definitely worth the wait! ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ’œ

๐Ÿ‰๐ŸŒ Watermelon Ice Cream! ๐Ÿฆโ˜€๏ธ

What better way to cool down on a hot day than making our very own delicious watermelon ice cream! ๐Ÿ˜‹

We started by weighing our watermelon and talking about how heavy it was before getting busy chopping up our watermelon and bananas. ๐Ÿ‰๐ŸŒ We then popped our fruit into the freezer before working together as a team to blend it all up with some milk. ๐Ÿฅ›

A delicious fresh and fruity frozen treat that was the perfect way to cool down in the sunshine! โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’—

We had so much fun working together, exploring measurements, practising our chopping skills and, of course, enjoying the yummy results! ๐Ÿฆ

With this heat weโ€™re having it seemed like the perfect activity to make some cold fruity pizza! Spreading our yoghurt, choosing our toppings, and counting our slices!
Delicious! Let me know if you give it a go! ๐Ÿ˜

Last week we made our very own Orange Juice! ๐ŸŠ
This simple activity supports so many areas of development:
๐Ÿงก Strengthening hand and finger muscles
๐Ÿงก Developing fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination
๐Ÿงก Encouraging independence and confidence
๐Ÿงก Learning where our food comes from
๐Ÿงก Exploring different textures, smells and tastes through sensory play

The best part was enjoying a refreshing glass of the delicious juice we made together. Thereโ€™s nothing quite like tasting something youโ€™ve worked hard to create! ๐ŸŠโœจ
