Here’s some of the activities the little ones have been busy with over the last week or so.
I provided the children with an assortment of resources and they created their own unique monsters.
E had a go at creating….
…however she really seemed to like pulling them apart!
Next up is one of our pumpkin activities.
This year I invested in a couple of hand-drills and this is the first time we’ve tried them out.
There were no shortage of testers!
Experimenting with drilling from the inside out!
We’ve also had lentils out over the last week – messy, but lots of fun!
I set them out in a bowl, rather than in the tray as normal and the children seemed to really enjoy being able scoop big spoonfuls.
Trying out the different equipment.
Filling…
…and emptying
Filling the bottle with a little help.
Deciding to have a try without the funnel.
Pouring into small containers….
and even smaller containers!
E wasn’t interested in the little containers.
It was pouring between the larger containers that caught her interest.
Here are the fab spider webs the children have been busy creating today.
I think they enjoyed this activity as they could do the whole process themselves.
We’ve also visited the woods to join in with the Halloween treasure hunt.
Oh, and this was another one the children loved, snowflakes spiders webs!
That just leaves their glow-in-the-dark pumpkins to share. They look really effective in the dark, unfortunately it doesn’t show up on camera.
We’ve scooped out the insides of the pumpkins we grew in the garden (when we used the hand drills) but we’ve got our big pumpkins to do tomorrow. We’re also going to try roasting the pumpkin seeds.
