San Luigi Child Care Naxxar inspired by Reggio Emilia approach

✨🧚‍♀️ This week our theme is Disney, and today our little explorers enjoyed a magical “potions tuff tray” activity inspired by nature and color mixing 🌸💧✨

The children had so much fun pouring, scooping, and transferring colorful water from one bowl to another, just like little potion makers in a fairy tale 🧪🌈 They explored different colors, named them aloud, and used droppers to carefully mix and blend the shades, watching the water transform

They also splashed gently with their hands to observe the ripples and movement in the water, noticing how the colors changed and swirled together ✨ Fresh flowers were added for a sensory touch, and the children loved dipping and collecting them as part of their imaginative play 🌸💐

A wonderful day full of curiosity, creativity, and sensory discovery! 💛✨

✨🎆 A magical Disney week continues in our classroom! 🎠✨

Today our little artists created their very own “Disneyland fireworks” using a fun and creative fork-painting technique 🎨🍴. They gently dipped forks into bright paint colors and stamped beautiful fireworks bursts onto their Disneyland-themed cardboard templates — just like a sparkling night sky above the park 🌈🎆🏰

So much imagination, joy, and creativity in every masterpiece! 💛✨🎨

🐠🎨 Toilet Paper Roll Fish 🎨🐠
Our little artists had so much fun turning simple toilet paper rolls into colorful fish! 🌈✨
This creative craft activity encouraged children to use their imagination while developing important skills such as:
🐟 Fine motor control
🐟 Hand-eye coordination
🐟 Creativity and self-expression
🐟 Scissor and gluing skills
Each fish was unique and full of personality, just like the children who made them! 💙

🐟🌊 Rescue the Fish! 🌊🐟
Our little ocean heroes had a blast with this Rescue the Sea Creatures fine motor activity! 🐋🐢⭐
Using their fingers and problem-solving skills, the children carefully untangled sea animals from the pipe cleaner "nets." This hands-on activity helps develop:
✨ Fine motor skills
✨ Hand-eye coordination
✨ Concentration and patience
✨ Problem-solving abilities

Today our little ones enjoyed a beautiful storytelling session all about the cow 🐄💛.
They showed curiosity, bright smiles, and lots of attention as they listened and explored the story. Some babies even reached out to touch the cow-themed toys, bringing the story to life through sensory discovery 👶🌿.
This experience supported their early listening skills, sensory exploration, and emotional engagement through play-based learning 📖💫

🐡✨ Puffer Fish Fun! ✨🐡
Today, our little artists got creative and made their very own puffer fish! Using balloons, glue, and colourful kite paper, the children carefully decorated their creations while exploring colours, textures, and fine motor skills.
It was wonderful to see their imagination and enthusiasm shine through as they brought their puffer fish to life. 🎨🌈💙

Today the children ejoyed a simple cooking activity using just two ingredients: jelly and cornflakes. The children helped spoon the jelly and cornflakes into a plastic cup, creating their own tasty layered snack. This hands on activity encouraged fine motor skills, independence and sensitivity exploration as the children mixed, scopped and assemble their treats

The babies developed sensory exploration, curiosity, and early cognitive skills through hands-on engagement with the Farm Shop 🌾🥛activity. They practiced early coordination, visual tracking, and awareness of their environment through meaningful play experiences.

Today, the children enjoyed a messy sensory play experience with our duck pond tray. They explored the "mud", a mixture of cornstarch and cocoa powder, ducks, and other materials using their senses, showing curiosity in different ways. Some children eagerly touched and explored everything in the tray, while others focused their attention on favourite items such as the ducks or eggs. This activity supported sensory development, concentration, and independent exploration while encouraging the children to investigate and learn at their own pace.

Today, the children explored a bird-themed tuff tray filled with feathers, leaves, sticks, nests, eggs, and birds. They enjoyed discovering different textures, colours, and natural materials, using their senses to investigate the environment. Some children explored a variety of resources, while others showed sustained interest in specific items, carefully examining and interacting with them. This activity encouraged sensory exploration, fine motor development, curiosity, and an early understanding of birds and their habitats.
