We have been getting messy with the shaving foam today! The children have been busy creating pictures in the foam and having a go at writing the first letter of their name.
This week in ‘Wicked Wednesdays’ we carried out a brand new experiment. It involved using sandwich bags, water and very sharp pencils! The first thing we had to do was fill up the sandwich bags with water. We then poked the sharp pencils through the bag so that they went straight through one side and out the other. We were extremely surprised to see that none of the water leaked from the bag! When we then took the pencils out, the water started leaking from the holes. We found this very funny!
We have made the most of the beautiful sunshine and set up a painting station outside! The children were exploring the paint using the rollers, sponges and stamps and had made some fantastic patterns. The children were also having fun mixing the colours together to see which new colour it made!
This week in Nursery, we have been exploring nature and have been participating in various activities. One of the activities was a ‘Bug Hunt’ in which we decided to hunt for bugs around the local estate. We were successful in finding ants, bee’s, a snail and a worm. We then stopped off in the park for a treat!
This week in cooking we made ‘rock cakes’! We had to measure out the correct amount of flour and raisins using the scales. We then all had a turn at mixing in the ingredients. They smelt extremely yummy when they were baking in the oven!
