Our Adventure up into the garden.
Today the children requested to head up into the garden so we headed up after lunch. Everyone loves jumping in the huge muddy puddle. Some of the children pretended they were Peppa pig characters as they splashed in the puddle.
Some of the children explored the mud even further, covering their hands and using the mud as paint to make muddy handprints around the garden.
Others were busy using their sticks and digging tools to create holes for their dens down at the bottom of the garden.
We noticed that some of the trees had fallen down, so we helped to remove some of the dead branches. The children collected some of the sticks and used them to build pretend bonfires inside their dens.
We also brought the saw and clamp up to the garden for the first time. The children who had a turn listened very carefully to instructions about how to use the saw safely. We are hoping to use some of the larger branches that were cut down to help build a den in the garden soon.
We had a very fun, muddy afternoon in the garden, filled with great teamwork and new learning.
