Play is our mahi!
There has been a group wide interest in construction since returning from our Christmas break. We have a great range of resources to fulfill this interest, and I love seeing how other resources are incorporated and the imaginative play that goes with it!
Offering a variety of different items with our playdough has expanded what the children have been making, and how their play and conversations have evolved! From ice-blocks to cakes, dinosaurs and diggers, the stories that unfold around the playdough table connect the children to one another, and to their home life.
Connection is at the heart of all we do here at JoJo's Place, so it is always lovey to observe how connected the children are to one another.
This is a small snippet of what we have been up to lately 🥰

We had such a fun morning out picking (and eating 🤣) strawberries from Sommerfields Berry Farm, with our friends from Nurtured at Home! It feels like summer is just around the corner! 🍓 🌞

Lovely calming sensory play with the big kids! Everyone is enjoying exploring the waterbeads, lots of descriptive language, and imaginative play, alongside colour and counting exploration.

Today we continued our exploration of Waitā - following our visit to the beach this week. Everyone loved exploring the jelly with the star cutters and breaking chunks of jelly off to reveal hidden treasures from the sea, as we sang Kai Moana, Matariki waiata, and Slippery Fish! Such a lovely sensory experience, especially after we added warm water to the mix!

Autumn is magical! The feel of the wind as it kisses our cheeks, leaves crunching under foot, the smell of damp earth, and watching the leaves scatter in the wind with squeals of delight! 🍂🍁
