Ladybirds
This week in Ladybirds our theme of the week was sensory fun! We have enjoyed baked bean play, made some sensory bags and filled them with hair gel, paint, pasta and oats! We have also got stuck into messy gloop play, crazy foam and lots more messy play. The little Ladybirds have also loved fruit painting along with sticking and gluing in particular this week.
Next week our theme of the week is noise! We will be making paint brushes with bells on as musical instruments as well as making our own musical shaker, engaging in crunchy snow play and a lot more exciting activities. We will also start making our Christmas cards and presents for mummies and daddies as well as some Christmas fun activities.
Butterflies
This week in Butterflies we have been doing lots of physical activities such as playing games with the parachute, action songs and mark making activities. We have also started our Christmas fun and arts and crafts, ready to start decorating the room to get into the Christmas spirit! We have been creating things like snowman footprints, decorating snowflakes and reindeer.
Next week we will be starting to put all our wonderful Christmas creations up and prepare a Christmas display.
Bumblebees
The Bumblebees loved making real cups of tea this week (with cooled water!) especially as we enjoyed them with a yummy biscuit. We have also been very busy making and creating some lovely Christmas gifts and art work.
Next week we will be starting to make beautiful Christmas boards and creating lots of art work to hang and decorate the room with.
Dragonflies
This week Dragonflies have been practising for our nativity play and doing really well. We have also started making Christmas pictures and making some winter stockings. We also really enjoyed cooking this week and made delicious gingerbread. Singing Christmas songs and partaking in some excellent dancing with the lovely music lady was also a highlight of the week!
