Under the sea at Hampton

This week the children have been investigating the world of animals . They began in the water using sea creatures to swim under the water and make big splashes. Douglas said 'The lobster and crab are hiding'. Damon used a whale to make big splashes in the water as it jumped out and back into the water. Julien and William played with the insects inside helping them to hide behind pines cones and in little wood dens, William said 'Yuck' as he played with insects. The children then played with the tufty tray containing different terrains that the animals live in. They used farm animals in the soil, bugs in the sand and sea creatures such as sharks in the water. Molly named some of the farm animals whilst walking them around the soil , with Zach mixing the soil and hay together to create a den to hide the animals in.

The babies have been in the garden building up some bricks. Thomas built some lovely towers in front of Jasper before Jasper gave them a push and pushed them over making Thomas laugh. Owen used a ball to push back and forth between himself and Freddie. They had a lovely walk to Carlisle Park this week and played on the apparatus in the under 5’s area. Emily and James were rocking back and forth on the horses having a race!
