Over the past few weeks the children have been very busy...They enjoyed a lovely trip to the shop where they each chose some beautiful flowers and plants πΈπΌ
Back at the setting, the children carefully planted their flowers, talking about colours, petals, and what plants need to grow. We then sat together and drew wonderful pictures of the flowers we had planted, using lots of bright colours and creativity π¨
A lovely hands-on activity encouraging creativity, communication, and learning about nature π±
Now the children need to continue to care for the flowers, give them plenty of water and watch them grow and change over time πΊ
