Make Your Own Pizza
Our children have become increasingly independent in the preparation of their own snack and are developing so many skills in this area. Recently they were able to make their own choices of topping for a mini pizza which was such a fun learning activity and provided a very tasty, warm snack on a chilly day. As you can imagine, the smell in Nursery was delicious and everybody was very keen to take part in the snack preparation.
Christmas Cutting
The children have been so busy in the art and craft areas lately that we now have super decorations everywhere. Have you noticed the recent addition of a Christmas tree in the corridor? Great cutting skills are evident from the girls and boys from the Raindrop Room on this piece of work. I wonder if they can find their own bauble?
Learning With Chocolate
The children in the Rainbow Room have been making chocolate shapes to sell as a little enterprise project. Initially a group of children went shopping to buy the ingredients, helping them to understand the purpose of money. Back at Nursery, discussions about what would happen when we put chocolate in the microwave then the fridge provided the opportunity to develop the children’s science learning and they also used numeracy skills to count the squares of chocolate when preparing their chocolate shapes. Of course there was also the opportunity for a little tasting as some of the children enjoyed the age old tradition of “cleaning” the bowl at the end.
We can certainly recommend the chocolate shapes to anyone who has a little money to spare – at 50p a bag we think that they are a tasty buy so watch out for the children’s basket of shapes in Nursery.
Well Done
Here are the happy smiles of last week’s award winners. We are sure that their certificates will take pride of place in their homes. Very well done both of you!
Food Sampling
Seth’s family has been looking at the photos of the visit by the Health Improvement Team:
“Seth says trying the food was good he liked the corn”.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. It was great to see the children trying so many foods that day.
Congratulations
Huge congratulations go to last week’s award winners who look delighted with their certificates.
Thank You
Those in the Raindrop Room enjoyed taking part in Yvonne and Louise’s information and taster session just as much as those in the Rainbow Room last week. We were delighted that parents, grandparents and childminders were able to join us and everyone appreciated the suggestions and the opportunity to taste different foods.
A few more comments included:
“Very informative, great to see the kids trying different foods. The banana ice-cream was really good. Some very useful tips”.
“Explained all the foods, colours and about textures, very tasty”.
“Good to see the kids try different stuff and some of the stuff was nice”.
“Very informative and useful information and great for the children to try things they maybe wouldn’t try at home”.
Thank you so much to Yvonne and Louise for their time and super advice. Children, staff and our families all thoroughly enjoyed your sessions.
Well Done Barclay
Barclay’s family has been looking at the photo of him with his certificate:
“Well done Barclay, mummy and daddy are very proud of you”
We are all proud of him too. Well done Barclay, you thoroughly deserved your certificate. Thank you also to your family for taking the time to leave a comment.
Award Winners
What a lot of award winners there have been recently due to some super effort. This was one group who were very proud of their certificates. No doubt their families will be just as proud as us. Keep up the great work!
