Loose Parts Play

Today the children really enjoyed the lovely weather outside. Inside preschool they did some intricate building with the ‘FUN BLOX’.

Outside they all wanted to continue with more construction and building. We supplied reels, cardboard boxes, stepping stones of wood, slabs of wood, wooden slats, boxes and crates.

They worked together to build the obstacle course, tried it out, adjusted it, added more bits and tried it out again.

Ducks came to preschool

This morning we were visited by 3 drakes and a duck, they were initially in the car park until I opened the gate to unload my car and they waddled through. The children came in from the garden and they watched the ducks walk down the back driveway. We gave them some oats and persuaded them that going on the main road was not a smart move.

They munched the oats and then went back to the brook at the bottom of the field.
