So much excitement, creativity and hands on learning!

And there’s lots more messy play today! 🤩 Tamariki watched as the materials changed from dry, to liquid, to squishy, bendy and stretchy. So much fun exploring different textures and properties! 💦🙌

Messy play also provides a wonderful opportunity for tamariki to relax, regulate and soothe themselves through sensory exploration. 💛🌿

Our tamariki had lots of fun exploring sensory play with cocoa husks today! There was plenty of scooping, pouring, tipping and exploring as they discovered the different textures. 🤎

And the delicious chocolatey smell made the experience even more special -it made us all hungry!😋🍫

📸 Revisiting Our Learning! 📸

The other day we had so much fun exploring photography with our wooden cameras, pretending to be photographers and capturing the world around us. Today, we revisited that learning by using the iPad to take real photographs! The tamariki were excited to put their ideas into action, thinking carefully about what they wanted to photograph and exploring how technology can help us capture and share our discoveries. A wonderful example of how revisiting experiences can deepen learning and build on children’s growing interests and confidence.

📸 🐤Armed with the wooden cameras we made with Martin the Toymaker, our keen photographers set off to explore the kindergarten with curious eyes. As they searched high and low for interesting things to “capture,” excitement filled the air when the children spotted a bird’s nest tucked safely away. There were squeals of delight as they carefully observed, shared their ideas, and imagined who might live there. On closer inspection, we saw broken shell remained, suggesting baby birds had hatched!! It was a beautiful reminder that slowing down and looking closely helps us notice the wonders of the natural world all around us. Our handmade cameras continue to inspire curiosity, observation, and a love of nature through play.🪺🌳

⛄️ Our tamariki had a wonderful time exploring ‘snow’ ❄️ in the outdoor trough this morning. They investigated its many properties by scooping, squeezing, mixing, and creating, even having a go at making their own snowmen.⛄️ There was so much excitement, laughter, and wonder as they explored together through fun, hands-on sensory play. ❄️
