We have really enjoyed exploring our new ‘space’ themed Learning Zone this week.  There is lots to do & we have been using our imaginations to role play.

At the creative table we have been experimenting with clay. We liked using it but found it a bit “squishy”. When you add water to it, it goes a bit “jiggly”.

We also have a Minibeasts discovery area and the Small World Area has ‘People who Help Us’  toys & costumes to play with.

Tomorrow we are going to try creating some art work for the Learning Zone wall – watch this space!
