Here's some more pictures from last week.

As we continued to follow the children's interest in the weather and seasons we tried out a new style of painting!

We painted with 'Paintstickles'!

They were really easy to make.

We popped the paint in some ice cube trays, popped in half a lollipop stick and put them in the freezer.

We were excited to see what had happened.

As we painted the 'Paintstickles' melted!

We had great fun and they created lots and lots of discussion.

The children are keen to paint with these another day.

More loose parts fun outside!

Lots of opportunities to design and be curious!

We decided to create ramps to run and walk down.

Then we wanted to put tryes at the bottom so we could jump too!

Just what we all need for the weather in Orkney!

Here we are dressed for all types of weather on the same day!

As well as investigating the cold weather and Ice, we spoke about hot, tropical places too.

We explored the playdough with tropical umbrellas, deck chairs and people.
