Nurturing nature explorers
The morning children attended Shotts Nature Park with their mum, where they put their curiosity skills into action by creating a forest friend using clay.
Water whether that be made from a puddle or by a running steam provides endless possibilities. The children were fascinated by the ripples made by the stones as they threw them into the pond and developed their early writing skills as they used mud and a sticks to create their marks on the ground.
In the afternoon the children explored the park independently as developed their awareness of risk as they swung and climbed the trees, built dens and played hide and seek.
Family learning sessions will continue alternate Wednesday’s for each session……Wednesday 19th July at 1 pm will be the afternoon families. Please note that this is only for children who are currently registered to attend.
