This week we celebrated Chinese New Year, Valentines Day and Pancake Day.

The children spent lots of time playing with the rice and pasta, picking it up with spoons, filling bowls, using chopsticks or trying to and moving the pasta with the child tweezers.

The children each made a valentines card and we talked about who their special people were. We looked at the different sizes of hearts and buttons that we stuck to our creations and then added some ribbons to finish the card off.

We had pancakes for snack and added strawberries, banana’s, cucumber and breadsticks which tasted ‘very nice’ I am told.
