As part of \u2018Nature Week\u2019<\/span>\ud83c\udf3f\ud83c\udf40\ud83c\udf33<\/span>we created our own nature gardens using leaves, twigs, bark and rice! The children had the brilliant idea of mixing green paint with the rice to create grass!GENIUS!<\/span>\ud83c\udf1f<\/span>A great activity for developing fine motor skills too!<\/span><\/p>\n

Later on in the week the children had the idea of adding pasta and dried noodles to our gardens! Why not?! We can be creative in lots of different ways!<\/span>\ud83e\udd29<\/span><\/p>\n

We also explored the garden to find other natural resources to add to our gardens. Grass, soil and stones were found to create more texture.<\/span>\ud83c\udf3f<\/span><\/p>\n

Fantastic!<\/span>\ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f<\/span><\/p>\n

On Friday we introduced play dough, numbers and flowers to our nature gardens.<\/span>\ud83c\udf39\ud83c\udf37\ud83c\udf40<\/span>Lots of different smells, textures and things to feel and look at. We used so many of our senses!<\/span>\ud83d\udc43\ud83d\udc40\u270b<\/span>Discovery, curiosity and exploration!
