Just like the Raindrop Room, those in the Rainbow Room have been learning about Chinese New Year and have enjoyed a range of activities. There has been a focus on developing fine motor control with the use of chopsticks to paint and write on paper and in glittery sand while the sand tray turned into a big noodle sensory experience. We have sequenced numbers and tried to copy the Chinese versions, discovered where China is on the globe and\u00a0danced along with the dragons as we watched them on the big screen.\u00a0Chinese New Year certainly provides lots of opportunities for learning.<\/p>\n
