​The 3-5 group have started a new topic on mini beasts they have had lots of fun exploring outside to see what mini beasts they could find, they found lots of wiggly worms. They also made some ladybug flapjacks which all the children really enjoyed taking part in.

Spring time play and crafting

We have been spending a little time practicing our pencil grip and control. Here George is using a chalk pen, they are great (we even use them on the windows sometimes).

The boys are outside, enjoying some time to investigate the amount of water that has gathered in the tyres. One found a star fish in the sand area and took it up to put it in the water, telling us "it needs water to survive". Also ‘double trouble’ gathering water for their mud pies! Our poor mud kitchen took a bit of a battering in the recent gales, but this doesn’t stop us having some messy outdoor fun!

​​Coinneach has just joined us – he has had a great first week, particularly exploring our outdoor area.  He enjoyed climbing our tyre climbing frame and investigating our tyre ladder. 

​​Olivia is loving covering Daddy Pig in bubbles. She spent ages playing in the water and extending the bubble blowing to make patterns.

​​Ceitidh is enjoying the feeling of the artificial snow, making her animals get stuck in the snow for her to rescue. The artificial snow is dry powder, mixed with water to make snow, which felt cold to the touch.  Our winter theme is coming to an end.

​​Seonaidh is taking his time gluing his torn pieces of tissue paper onto his snowflake as part of our winter topic. Seonaidh spent quite a bit of time deciding which colour to put where.

​​Miller enjoying some creating time at the art easel. She loves to explore different brush strokes and has good control of the paint brush. Miller is making a purple shape to go on the colour wall.

​​Jo loving the texture of the paint and getting her hands messy. This is an orange shape to be added to the colour wall, a visual tool to become more aware of ‘na dathan’.

Since we we are learning about spring the children made butterfly biscuits and decorated them with smarties. There was a lot of numeracy involved in weighing out and measuring the ingredients.

Some of the children in the 2-5 room went on a topic-related trip to see some animals and their young. We had a lot of fun, and learnt a lot about animals.

An drasta tha sinn ag ionnsachadh beagan mu dheidhinn an t-Earrach agus beatha ùr.

We are learning about spring and the new life that comes with it. We explored the nursery garden to see if we could spot any signs of spring, and we found some daffodils. We then made our own daffodils in the nursery.
