We have had a great day celebrating the Queen’s Jubilee. The children had lunch outside and had lots of fun at their garden party. We had the music on, we danced, we had the pom poms out and we had a great day.

The children enjoyed baking some cupcakes which they had for their snack to help celebrate the Queens Jubilee. The children learned the importance of hygiene when baking. The children also used their numeracy skills to help weigh out the ingredients.

We have loved playing in the garden this week. The children particularly like the mud kitchen because they like to use their imaginations to mix and create different things using the equipment.

The children have been enjoying spending time in the garden. The children have been looking after their daffodils that they planted in winter as they have started to blossom for spring. All of the children have taken it in turns to water our flowers with the watering cans to help them grow nice and strong for spring.

We have been loving this nice weather in the willow room ☀️. We have enjoyed having snack outside which the children were excited about as it is a change in our routine. It is making us super excited for the nice sunny weather.

We have been doing lots of activities in the garden. The children have enjoyed some water play in the sun. They have enjoyed playing with the boats and the ducks as they have used their imagination to create some pretend play with the toys. The children have also shown a great interest in the bikes. This is helping the children develop their motor skills as they are learning to move their legs a certain way and have even started to use the pedals. This is great for their physical development😀.

As part of our monthly planning the children have started to learn a little more about emotions and how we should treat our friends in nursery. The children are learning to recognise and copy some common emotions such as happy, sad, angry and tired. The children decided what faces they wanted to copy and were encourage to show their emotions. “I angry”- Child K. “Meee happy”- Child KJ.
The children are forming great relationships and are learning how to show empathy and be kind to each other. This helps their social and emotional development especially whilst learning to regulate these emotions 😀😡😞😴.
