The children have been showing an interest in Pirates and under the sea in the nursery and in the garden. They have been playing ‘Shark Attack’ at the obstacle course using the equipment as a safe place from the sharks, climbing and balancing on the various pieces of equipment. The sharks can attack if you are in the sea, the grass. They extended this by introducing jellyfish and mermaids.
In the nursery the children have helped develop the tough tray into the sea and have been making treasure chests. There has been discussions about the different creatures we will find in the sea with the children providing lots of information. The treasure map was also discussed and the children were talking about finding the treasure at “X marks the spot”.
