This week in IEYC we have been very busy exploring mini beasts.  Lots of children have been taking part in table top games learning to follow rules and take turns.  We have been drawing a variety of bugs inside and out.  We have also made some with dough showing off our counting skills as we added the legs to different insects.

We introduced some real insects (grasshoppers, crickets and meal worms) which were a great hit with the children.  Lots of conversations and discussions were had.  Some children amazed the adults with their incredible knowledge here.

We hope the weather is good over the weekend and you are able to go on your own mini beast hunts.  Please share your experiences with us.
