Mud kitchen fun 🤩

We are focussing on emotions, feelings and ‘all about me’. It is a great way to get to know our new little ones and for our children to get to know each other.

Great to see so children engaged in their play!!!

Cooking club
Step 1: preschoolers made homemade pizza dough
Step 2: roll out dough
Step 3: get ingredients ready
Step 4: use tomato paste for base then choose toppings to create a face

🍕So many opportunities for our littles to learn new skills/practice ones they already know
🍕Lots of conversations at the table between children and staff
🍕 A chance to encourage littles to try some new foods, especially if they have made something from scratch
