Tweenies Baking Week! 👩🍳👨🍳
What better way to learn real-life skills than by getting stuck into some baking!
This week, the Tweenies have been busy chopping, measuring, bashing, mixing and creating — all while learning about safety and hygiene.
Baking is about so much more than making something delicious. It gives children opportunities to develop their independence, confidence, fine motor skills, coordination and early maths skills, while also learning to follow instructions, solve problems and work as a team.
They are learning to take turns, share equipment, make choices and see the results of their own hard work.
Most importantly, they are developing practical skills that they can use in everyday life. 🌟
And of course… there is the added bonus of enjoying what they have made! 🧁❤️
The Tweenies also enjoyed role-playing baking through messy play, exploring mixing, measuring and creating. They also used their imaginations to design and create their own cupcake pictures! 🎨👩🍳
Learning through creativity, sensory play and imagination. ❤️
