Today the children have had lots of fun exploring the small world construction site! We worked as a team to make our pretend cement, simply using shaving foam, sand and a little oil. We had fun mixing it all together, and see the textures changing to make our cement.<\/p>\n

We of course had to follow the health and safety rules!<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0 <\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We had fun being creative and thinking about ideas for designs we wanted to make. \u201cI want to make a strawberry picking field\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to make \u00a0a football field!\u201d<\/p>\n

We explored all the different shaped blocks to see how we could bring our ideas to life. \u201cI need a round blocks. Because it\u2019s a circle shape\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m making a little town. There\u2019s a cafe in it. Would you like a sandwich?\u201d<\/p>\n

The children had lots of fun being imaginative, and gave each other lots of tips and tricks to make our creations and help each other. This is \u00a0a great way to develop a variety of skills such as problem solving, role playing, fine motor\/manipulative and social skills etc, and most importantly, it\u2019s SUPER FUN !! Well done everyone \ud83d\ude04<\/p>\n
