All children enjoyed various activities linked to Christmas both indoors and outdoors. Indoors the children explored our elf wrapping station where they were challenged to cut, tape and wrap gift boxes of all sizes. This supports fine motor skills and problem solving skills as well as discussing the importance of using tools safety.

In the creative area the children have been exploring patters using a variety of Christmas shapes and creating their own wrapping paper. The children have also been building upon their scissor control too within creative area. This week in the ECC the children have been exploring pattern further, creating their own patterns on Christmas cards which we will deliver out in the community to local businesses.

Early exposure to music has been shown to enhance language development, improving vocabulary, comprehension, and reading skills and of course, itโ€™s great fun! ๐ŸŽถย ๐ŸŽผ
