The children have come back after the half term break. Today we have enjoyed watching our Caterpillars. Some have transformed into their Chrysalis' already and are hanging from the lid. But there's one hungry Caterpillar still eating. We have also sat and read The very hungry Caterpillar story to learn about what's happening to our Caterpillars.

It's world Bee Day 🐝 and this morning, we have been very buzzzzy Bees 🐝 .
We have been learning different things about Bees and also made our own Bees to take home later 😀.
This activity helps promote
🐝 Pysical development - Fine and gross motor skills. By using the glue stick and our fingers to put the pieces of the Bee together. As well as hand eye coordination.
🐝 Communication and language development by learning new vocabulary and discussing the parts of a Bee.
🐝 Expressive arts and design by being creative and also the sensory experience of our fingers in the paint.
🐝Mathematics by starting to hear counting and pointing at the Bees.

We've had a lovely morning at Brooke Farm. We played together, met some new people, listened to the birds and explored the flowers. Learning new vocabulary and learning about the world we live in.

Another beautiful morning at the park with our friends 🥰.
