In support of World Bee Day, we have been enjoying some lovely activities at nursery this week. We have been focusing on what an important part bees play in our world and how they help to pollinate plants that create the food we eat. Our over 1 year olds really enjoyed putting honey on their yoghurt and fruit to enjoy as a little treat! We also had great fun using a potato masher to create some beautiful bee pictures to take home. 🐝 🍯

We’ve been outside enjoying the beautiful weather! We had fun making a lavender and mint potion in the garden and it smelt wonderful!
Today, we have been having fun exploring and building puzzles. Puzzles are great activities that promote the use of several different skills including spatial awareness, concentration, problem solving, visual perception, and fine motor skills.
Thank you Hazel for the fun music and dance session at nursery this morning. We especially enjoyed playing wind chime sounds and dancing with the rainbow scarves.
This week, we have been learning about the wind and we made some beautiful wind chimes. We enjoyed listening to different wind chime sounds, including bamboo, shells and coconut leaves. We had fun shaking our wind chimes whilst listening to our new poem which we have been learning this week.
The Wind Something that I cannot see, Makes a leaf dance in a tree. Makes my hair fly in my face, Takes my ball for me to chase. Here it is and there it goes… Every time the wind blows! This week, we made some amazing and colourful rainbow scratch pictures. It was great fun exploring the rainbow sand and rice, we enjoyed mixing the colours together and creating different patterns. 🌈
This morning, we have been looking for minibeasts in the garden. We were very excited to find a brown caterpillar, a little snail and a spider.🐛🐌🐞
Today, we have been exploring some fun sensory activities, and we enjoyed taking home a bubble pop bracelet. It was fun exploring the texture of the bracelet and it glows in the dark!
We have been having lots of fun playing with bubbles in the garden. We experimented with bubble painting and we took a little bubble wand home. We enjoyed learning a new rhyme all about bubbles and we read a story called ‘Pop’.
Bubbles, bubbles, here and there, Blow up, blow up, in the air. Blowing bubbles is so much fun! Blowing bubbles one by one. |
