Children have been engaging enthusiastically with the story of The Gingerbread Man, listening to the story and joining in with the parts they are familiar with. This has led to discussion about gingerbread at the dough table and the morning children had an interesting time investigating fresh and powdered ginger, smelling it and trying to get the dough to smell of it! We have made some stick puppets to further support the retelling of this story.

Our Autumn table has been added to with several different sizes squashes alongside a pumpkin. These have provoked lots of interest and discussion, comparing sizes, shapes and colours.

Children have been collecting and transporting leaves outside, one day they became the food for some pigs! Leaves and other natural materials have been brought inside to add to collage pictures and model making.
