The children have been practicing their scissor skills this week. They have been encouraged to snip into paper, with some children using 2 hands to control the scissors and some now able to use 1 hand. They also cut up some old daffodil flowers to experience a different texture and purpose for the scissors. This is something you can do at home using safety scissors. You could encourage your child to snip at old newspapers or magazines or even leaflets.

The children have also been dressing up this week. We have supplied the role play corner with fabric material to encourage the children to use their imagination when playing. They have showed enjoyment of wearing various hats and some even attempted to walk in heels!
