EXPLORING SUMMER

This week we had fun doing and discussing all things summer…While we still have warm summer mornings there is plenty of time for getting messy outdoors! Discussion ranged from camping to insects to keeping cool and what to wear to our favourite places, picnics and the beach amongst many other things…

Around the class we had summer play provocations which the children had great fun playing with…

Outdoors there was plenty of time to cook with sand and water in the outdoor kitchen…

We constructed a ball slide where the children had a great time collecting all the balls and seeing how fast they could roll them down the slide…

Plenty of free art out to explore and loose parts to create with…

We played with coloured ice balls in water and then for an added sensory element added some shaving foam the next day…The children loved how the colours melted into the foam and swirled around…

Of course summer crafts to take home and remind us of our fun week…

EXPLORING SUMMER

SUMMER FUN!

I love Summer! The children definitely feel more free as they run around barefoot exploring in the garden…

We’ve had a lot of discussion around camping this week so we built our own campsite at school… Using what we had in school we managed to create a campfire with fish, picnic basket and river with stepping stones…

And of course campfire and watermelon art to go with our camping!

SUMMER FUN!
