A busy week at the nursery, nothing new there then!
Children have been exploring sound whilst playing outside, beating the boomwhackers(tubes of plastic cut to different lengths thus producing different pitched sounds) on various surfaces to discover the range of sounds they can make.

The construction area inside has been busy too with children designing and creating models and structures which they, and others, have then used to develop their imaginative play ideas.

Some were building tall structures and comparing them to their height.

Whilst others solved construction problems by selecting different resources to build with.

Lentil soup was on the menu this week and some children helped to cut up carrots to add to the pot. They use knives designed to be used by young children and can further develop their cutting skills whilst playing in the house corner where they can usually find real vegetables to cut up and use as part of their play.

Snack menus are displayed in the cloakroom.
