Last week as part of our small group activities we were very busy exploring the 'big' playground!

We had great fun exploring this area.

We used our 'helpful' parts and our 'good balancing' parts as we crossed the chain bridge.

Some of us had great fun exploring the wooden house too.

Some people explored the inside of the house.

Others enjoyed climbing up and over the roof.

We used our problem solving parts as we figured out how to get back down from the roof.

Some of us enjoyed playing inside the sculpture in the playground. 

We called it the 'onion' as that's what we thought it looked like!

Some of us explored the Mugga. We had great fun with the balls and hoops.

Great fun painting in the art room!

We had great fun painting with the toys and cars.

We had great fun painting with the welly boots too!
We made some super paint footprints.

We had great fun visiting the hall where we could practice some more balancing skills.

We had such super fun that we are heading back to have some more balancing fun in the hall this week.

We tried something a little bit different at the writing table last week!

We had a go a writing and drawing under the table.

Lots of people who don't usually pick to play here decided that they wanted to play too.

It was great fun and very popular.

The next day we added drapes and lights too!

Sam Green, Iris' daddy joined us on Friday pm too.

Some of you might have seen him starting to work in our outdoor area!

We are delighted that Sam is working with us to develop our stone and sandpit area.

Last week he needed our help!

Sam came into speak to us about a dragon that he is busy carving in the sand area.

He asked us what we would like it to look like and for our ideas!

We were very excited to share our ideas. We drew a picture and showed these to Sam at the end of the afternoon.

Sam has taken a copy of our pictures away. These will help him to design the carvings for our Dragon!

And last but not least, time for a bit of baking in the nursery too.

Some of the children made delicious buns!
