Growing Your Brain

Try this activity at home. When we make a mistake, it causes our brains to spark and grow. In fact, when we get something right, our brains do not grow. What a wonderful fact to learn… it’s okay to make a mistake!! In fact, mistakes help us learn and grow.

Think of a time you made a mistake. How did you feel? When you stuck with it and figured out how to get the right answer, did you feel a sense of achievement?

Our brains need lots of things to help it grow and work properly, like exercise, sleep, new learning and healthy foods. Try doing the activity on the blue page above and look at all the ways we help our brain to grow!

Nature Treasure Box

Why not have a Welly Wednesday walk (it doesn’t have to be on Wednesday, it can be any day you have time to do this as a family). Our Willow Children always enjoy exploring nature and the great outdoors.

Take an empty egg box and fill each empty compartment with an item from nature, you found on your walk. It’s a great way to have a little piece of nature at home and a lovely memory box of your family walk.

Why not take a photo of your nature box and send it to me. I’d love to see them: easusan.travers@glow.sch.uk

As always, stay safe, take care, together we are Team MC!
