Outdoors fun šŸ¤©

This week in the outdoor area, the children have had lots of fun investigating different problem solving techniques through their play.

Some of the children really enjoyed posting the polydrone, so we came up with a fun game where we could all take turns posting them, and practice sharing our resources as a team.

The children came up with great suggestionsā€¦

ā€if we put the tyre at the bottom, then it might not topple?ā€

ā€œIā€™m a giant! I can see all the way to the bottomā€

Some of our children needed a little hand to reach, but were very resourceful, using the crates from the muddy movers obstacle course. Great idea šŸ’”

We posted so many polydrone that we filled the pipe up all the way to the topā€¦

ā€œWeā€™ve got to tip it out now. Big CRASH!ā€

ā€œready, steady, GO!ā€

Some children even decided to see if it would slide down to the bottom a different way after we had tipped it overā€¦

ā€it might get stuck.ā€

ā€Iā€™m so strongā€

ā€œGot them! Itā€™s like flyingā€

Sharing and turn taking are great life skills to learn, especially when itā€™s through fun games! Keep up the great work boys and girls šŸ‘šŸ¤©
