More Snowy Day Fun!

One of the small group activities we had planned for this week was to respond to music through art. 

Listening to music and inspired by Kandinsky were changed one of our ideas and took it outside into the snow!

The children listened to the music, responding through movement as they listened first.

Then using syringes and food colouring they created some super art work in the snow!

Look at the amazing colour, patterns and lines!

Snow!

The Snow has arrived and the children are loving to explore and investigate the wonderful white stuff!

The magic of catching and feeling the cold snow on your tongue!

Time for some Snow Angels!

Look at all of the patterns and footprints being created on the ground too.

Making paths, shoveling the snow and making snowballs!

We love these pictures.

Here are some more children keen to feel the snow on their tongues!

We had great fun.

We popped on our waterproof suits and we were ready to go!

Mark Making and writing in the snow.

What super opportunities to further develop our Language.

Let's make a Snowman.....Let's make his fat....Give him a round head.....Put on a hat...

What a fantastic time we had exploring the snow yesterday!

We had even more fun in the snow today. 

Pop back again soon for some more Snowy Day Fun.

Here's some pictures from the end of last term when it was time to PARTY!

The children and the adults all had a really super Christmas Party.

What a lovely way to end our second term.

Here are some of the children enjoying one of our party games called Corners.

When the music played they danced.

When the music stopped they were all really super at running to a corner.

What fun!

Here are some more pictures of another party game, Christmas Islands.

We had lots of dancing fun.

When the music stopped we jumped onto our Christmas newspaper islands.

Pass the Parcel with Forfeits.

We had a great time taking off the layers and doing our little challenges!

After all of our games, dancing and fun in the hall we went back to the nursery. We joined in our Key Group area for our Party Snack and a special visitor!Thank you to all of the grown ups who joined us back in the nursery to meet Santa too.The children had great fun opening their own little pressie in their key groups and opening our pressie for the nursery too.

Santa brought us some new foam bricks to play with in the construction area.
We love them!
They were very well played with last week. We loved watching how this new resource changed the children's play in the construction area. They was some very imaginative play here throughout our first week back including lots of chocolate machines and factories being built. Fantastic!

Here we are having some Pinata fun too! 

Earlier in the week a couple of the children helped Mrs Rendall to make a snowman Pinata.

It was fantastic. 

What great fun we had taking turns and trying to hit it open to find the surprise inside!

We had a really super first week back last week and are all looking forward to another busy term.

Pop back soon and see what is happening in the nursery.

Remember to sign up for a stay and play session this term if you would like to join us for some fun.

You are always more than welcome :-)
