Exploring frozen vegetables while feeding the animals. We squished them in our fingers, picked them up and dropped them. #animals #roleplay #sensory

We had a lovely visit from one of parents Caron who came in to do some singing and sensory games will all the children in each room. We sang songs, shook bells, banged a drum, loved exploring the bubbles and lights. Everyone had a fabulous time thank you so much

We participate in memory games; it helps to promote out long term memory for learning when we go to school. It also helps develop our matching skills when pairing the items on the boards. #turntaking #problemsolving

Our older children can sometimes go into help our younger children. All of the children involved like having new faces to play with. It teaches responsibility to the older children in terms of how to care for younger children, being gentle, caring and helpful. But really they all just enjoy having fun with each other #responsiblecitizen #nurture #fun #caring

Our children can take part in Italian lessons on a Friday with Karen who is one of our parents. Karen gives up her own time to come and teach the children. This week we are learning about colours, we had to identify objects of the colour Karen said in Italian.

Exploring our igloo; we like to take books in and look at them. It's a little space to get some time alone or be with a few friends #spaces #discovery

We were using the shape sorters; lots of concentration and problem solving to identify the correct shapes #discovery #criticalthinking

Building, shaking and stacking with the wooden rainbow blocks. Our blocks have different colours, some have objects in them too including bells, jewels to stimulate the senses. #senses #building #problemsolving
