The children have been very excited this week learning all about the Queen and her upcoming Platinum Jubilee. In the garden they worked together using the big building blocks to build Buckingham Palace or “the Queens house” as the children liked to call it!
We added cylinders to our Palace to make turrets and the children wanted a ramp at the front to slide out.
The blue blanket was used to create water in front of the Palace and other blankets to make a bridge at the side!
”The bridge is a shaky bridge to keep people out!”
”No one can get to our Queen across the water!”
The coloured material was used by the children to dress up as the Queen in her Palace. They had great fun roleplaying all different scenarios pretending to be royalty.
The children decided the Palace needed a flag so we painted some cardboard in red and blue to create a flag!
We taped a cane to our flag and stuck it in the Palace.
The children were very proud of their Palace and flag! They had lots of fun playing in it and it attracted other children to come and play too! We are all looking forward to continuing our Jubilee theme with our party tomorrow.
