The children have been observing the weather, and decided they really wanted to see some snow. ‘ Let’s do a snow dance!’ shouted Robyn ‘ And we can dress up!’ added Zac. They wore brightly coloured wristbands and weather warrior headgear, and set off to the park. They shook bells and danced and stamped their feet to the beat, shouting loudly together ‘Snow!’ They also made a special rainbow den using the parachute ‘ In case it really does snow!’ said Sami . They also made rainbow sticks made from twigs and small branches they found in the grass, and added lengths of fabric and crepe paper strips, and waved them around ‘ So we do get some snow!’ said Matilda. ‘! really hope it works’ Amelia added.
What is interesting is that we had a flurry of sleet this week - I wonder if the dance worked?
The toddlers have welcomed their new friends playing ball games together. One game was to post the balls through the gaps in the activity wall. Freddie was very keen for his new friend Millie to have a turn ‘ Ta’ he said as he held out the ball for her; how kind!
The Messy Spaghetti was indeed very well received, as different textures were included, including play foam. William loved to squish it in his hands whilst Joshua picked it up and dropped it form a height, watching very closely as it fell and landed on the floor. Meanwhile Hlenhaze and Thomas giggled as they explored the sensory experience.
