SOO today was about birds n bugs.  IT’s pretty hard to imagine being a bird for tots BUT our stick and worm collecting game provided opportunities to be active, to practice observational skills, teamwork, some counting and connection with nature – particularly our scramble through the ‘Fairy Door’.

Sensory play was provided through spaghetti worms and mud with fine motor skills in using giant tweezers, flying our parachute to give a sense of Nature’s power and wearing wings to be birds.  Lovely role play too with the woodland animals who also made their way into the giant birds nest.

Finishing off with a chance to try the fire steal, have our happy/ sad face coming together and plan for next Thursday.
