π Learning about Bumble Beeβs! π
The adults in the Dolphin room have worked together to carefully plan and prepare beautiful learning experiences for the children surrounding a fun bee theme. The children joined in with observational bee drawings, working together to make a junk model bee hive, painting their own bumble bees and exploring a bee themed nature tray. All of the children loved joining in with the wide range of activities provided.

π Going on a Bee Hunt! π
The children in the Pelican room have been observing the number of bees in our nursery garden following on from one of our children having bee hives in their garden at home. Today the children went on a bee hunt searching in the flowers to see how many bees they could find, they even found one on the slide! We continued this learning experience inside by creating our own bee and honey comb paintings.

π§ Ice Painting! π§
The children in the Seaturtle room took their small world animals ice skating! The frozen paint made wonderful coloured trails as the children moved the frozen animals around the giant paper. The children loved the sensory experience of the mixture of ice and paint and the opportunity to get messy in play.
