Eric Avenier, Emile’s daddy, has been creating a fabulous wee meeting house for us in our playground.\u00a0 He has sourced pallets and reused wood and built a wonderful wee place with internal benches for us to sit on, for stories and discussions and a wee shop awning for retail role play!!!!\u00a0 The children are so excited about this- they had a chat with Maureen about going out to have a closer look at what Eric was doing and they thought about how they could keep safe while doing this.\u00a0 They discussed this and decided to wear hard hats and goggles, because, ” That is what builders wear.”<\/p>\n

Outside, Eric talked to them and told him what he was doing.\u00a0 They had a really good look at all the special tools that he was using to cut the wood and join it together.\u00a0 Some of them even had a turn of using the hammer and nails.<\/p>\n

Eric has sparked real interest in building and we are planning to develop a new woodworking area outside the nursery beside the mud kitchen, with a work bench and proper woodworking tools (closely supervised of course!), to extend the children’s experience and interest in construction.<\/p>\n

Building sites are exciting places, but we have to be very careful.<\/p><\/div>\n
