We’ve been making the most of this little heatwave with a mix of fun outdoor and indoor activities.
We’ve been enjoying some garden time in the mornings before moving onto calmer, cooler activities after lunch. The children have loved the water play, giving the baby dolls a good wash, as well as exploring the sand tray and playing with the outdoor cars and trucks.
Indoors, we’ve been getting creative by making beautiful sand pictures. The children drizzled PVA glue onto their drawings, sprinkled over sand, and then carefully sieved away the excess to reveal their lovely textured creations.

Our lovely Shannen found our caterpillar to butterfly growing kit and ordered us some REAL caterpillars to grow and take care of.
Today they arrived and we now have Batman, Elsa, Godzilla, King Kong & Mickey to look after.
The children all had a look at our new friends and we are excited to see the transition, hopefully into chrysalis and with any luck some butterflies we can release. This is so important in working towards understanding of the world and learning about why things happen and how things work.
Watch this space for their journey! (And wish us luck 🤪) 🐛🍃🦋
