Wednesday…..
This morning we made some windy cloud streamers and took them out in the garden to watch them blow in the wind. The children helped them along by running round the garden with them. They showed good spatial awareness by avoiding obstacles and others as they ran around.
This afternoon in the garden we played water races where the children blew through straws to make the floating balls move across the water.

Tuesday…..
This morning some of the children went out on a walk to find things in nature for our messy tray. They found lots of leaves, twigs and conkers. We spoke about why the leaves were different colours and how they change when the weather changes.
We also did an activity about dressing in different weathers. The children knew that we wear welly boots, coats hats and gloves when it is cold outside ❄️ But when it is hot and sunny we wear shorts and t-shirts ☀️

Monday…..
For our cookery activity today the children made rainbow cornflakes cakes 🌈 They enjoyed mixing the cornflakes into the chocolate and spooning the mixture into the cake cases. Then they put on the sprinkles and we spoke about the colours they could see.
In the messy tray the children used glue and glitter to make some snowflake pictures. One of the children said it looked like it was raining with the glitter sprinkling down ☔️ ❄️

To end the week the children have been learning about healthy eating. They made a picture with healthy and unhealthy food monsters. This afternoon we made an obstacle course in the garden for the children to do which they really enjoyed.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend 🐻

Monday and Tuesday…..

We have had a busy start to the week with our theme of keeping healthy. Yesterday the children made banana and oat bites for our cookery activity. They used a fork to mash up the bananas and the mixed in the oats.
In the messy tray they had a go at cleaning the dirty teeth pictures with toothbrushes, brushing them until they were clean 🦷
In the afternoon we played the greedy gorilla game where the children were able to identify if the food was healthy or unhealthy. If it was unhealthy we fed it to the gorilla and he did a big burp! The children thought this was funny 🤣
Today we have shared the story of the hungry caterpillar and the children looked at some of the foods the caterpillar ate. We spoke again about healthy eating and how foods help us to grow big and strong.
In the garden the children joined in with a yoga session following the hungry caterpillar yoga session. The children showed really good listening and enjoyed this exercise.
Finally, this afternoon the children have had the opportunity to do some fruit painting. They enjoyed exploring the fruits and vegetables and seeing the different prints they made.
