Ladybirds

This week our little Ladybirds have made a lovely Autumn display with wildlife collages, painted hedgehogs and scarecrows! Please do make sure you come and take a look. Our babies also went for a walk on Friday and collected lots of leaves that had fallen from the trees. Autumn is definitely here!

Next week we will be celebrating harvest! We are looking forward to vegetable painting (including corn-on-the-cob!) and stamping as well as taking a trip to the church.

Butterflies

The lovely Butterflies have really enjoyed lots of messy play this week. The children also led some activities with particular favourites being sand and water play. We’ve had stories in the book corner and lots of time in the crisp fresh air in the garden!

Next week are exploring autumn, celebrating harvest and making some wonderful pictures and collages.

Bumblebees

The Bumblebees have really enjoyed lots of painting using vegetables and fruit this week for our super new harvest display. The tremendous toddlers also especially enjoyed their music session with Jo this week, it is so lovely to see them enjoying making noise and getting into the music!

A focus for next week will be exploring painting with lots of different tools – great for sensory development, fine motor skills and creativity!

Dragonflies

We have been cracking on with our display this week and especially enjoyed making tissue paper fruits! Messy play has been particular fun this week, and centred around our book of the month Harry and His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs, with toy dinosaurs and bones in soil! The Dragonflies have also really enjoyed markmaking in flour using fingers, letters and paintbrushes.

Next week the letter is T, number 23, colour yellow and shape a hexagon. We will continue our harvest focus with lots of related creative and engaging activities as well as our service in the church on Friday!
