Last week we did some colouring , the children went around and" fixed" all our toys , we went for lots of walks and even played in the muddy puddles, we sang songs and did lots of music and movement with our scarves !

Rice play !!!!! The children had fun scooping the rice ! Then they got really creative !!!! They spread the rice all over the room , they felt it under their feet and noticed it was slippery to walk on , they noticed when they rode on it ,it made cracking sounds , some of them even had a little taste They had such a good time !! , ... In every mess is a learning experience !!! See more
