The children this week have been busy exploring different foods. The children made some gingerbread men with Beth. They used their fine motor skills to roll out the dough and then press the cutter to create the shape. Some children then walked to the school kitchen to watch Beth use the oven. Once they were ready and cooled down the children then decorated them how they wished using some icing pens. The children followed good hygiene practice and enjoyed getting creative.
The children have been practicing wrapping some presents with Lisa. They have been using their fine motor skills to use tools like scissors to complete this. The children were learning to hold them correctly and were learning how to cut in a straight line. This helps develop their hand eye coordination as they focus on what they are cutting.
The children have been doing lots of different Christmas crafts which will continue until we stop for Christmas. The children have been doing sticky pictures using different collage materials, mark making and decorating, all of which help to develop their problem solving skills and encourage them to think creatively.
Thank you to everyone who made it to the Christmas concert. I know you will agree with me when I say the children done amazing and their singing was beautiful. It was even lovely to see you all dance which I know the children loved as well💖 For those that donated a big thank you as well it is much appreciated💖🌲 🎅🏼
