Welcome to our weekly nursery blog! It won’t be the same as seeing you in the nursery, but we hope it cheers up your week with some ideas of things you can try at home. Just scroll down the page.
This week’s theme is RAINBOWS!
How could we resist when there are so many to see all around us. Do you have a rainbow picture in your window?
This week why not try to make a rainbow in a different way?
You could make an arc of colours or pile them up to make a rainbow stack.
Mrs Leigh tried to make a rainbow from her washing!
You could collect stones and colour them with pens or paints if you have them. I wonder how many stones you need to make a rainbow? Have a count once your rainbow is made.
Delicious Rainbows You Can EAT!!!!!!
You could even try to make rainbow food!
Check out these delicious rainbows! They look like one of Miss Murray’s snacks don’t they!
Do you know this song?
Once there was a boy called Joseph. His dad gave him a beautiful coat of many colours. Have a look at this funny song-do you think Joseph’s big brothers like his coat?
Try counting all the colours in Joseph’s coat! There’s a lot!
Here is an EXPERIMENT you can do to make a rainbow.
You’ll need: water, a plate and some Skittles (sweeties!).
Next add some water to the plate. Let it cover the skittles a little bit, you might need some help with this bit. Watch very carefully and patiently.
How are rainbows made? I know you always tell me by sunshine and rain!
Have a look at the weather forecast for this week on your tablet or on mummy’s phone. Do you think you’ll see a real rainbow this week? Which day?
Finally, here is a story about a very colourful elephant called Elmer. Do you remember hearing his story at nursery?
Benny the busy Puppy
Benny is enjoying playing outside in the sunny weather. Are you?
What is he up to today? Why don’t you join in?
