This week we have continued The Three Little Pigs, we completed our wolf and have made piggy biscuits, and the children have really enjoyed making different houses out of a variety of resources and enacting the story together.
We have done a variety of activities for Chinese New Year, we made a stir fry bowl with wool, and lots of vegetables, and the children used chopsticks to try and pick up the food, this encouraged hand eye coordination and conversations about different cultures and types of food that we enjoy at home.
We also had lots of fun in the garden with the ice, the children loved breaking it up and watching it melt, we then extended the activity by filling balloons and leaving them overnight in the garden to see if they would freeze.
We turned the sand tray into dinosaur land, the children used the dinosaurs to dig and make mountains out of the sand and had lots of imaginative chatter, naming the dinosaurs and even giving them different characters and voices.
