We are looking for new stones or rocks for our stone pit in nursery. We use them for building, balancing, counting and for extending our imaginative play. Natural resources like stones are also a fantastic resource for open ended play experiences that require higher order thinking. For more information on the use of natural materials in early years settings please click here.
Please could all children try to bring at least one stone or rock to nursery as soon as possible. We are looking for stones or rocks in a variety of sizes. Many thanks.
