June Newsletter Chicklets Room News

We have been very busy in the Chicklets Room during May! The children have shown a strong interest in messy play this month and have been exploring different media, textures and materials. Sand play has also been a massive hit indoors and outdoors, where the children have enjoyed using their fine motor skills to scoop up the sand to fill the containers. We have been making the most of the beautiful weather this month and spending a lot of time out in the garden. We have even been lucky enough to go to Roundhay Park in the prams, where we had the chance to feed the ducks too. The children have found a new favourite game during their time in the garden, where they like a staff member to catch them, so they have the chance to run around the garden. The babies have also enjoyed exploring the Busy Board and using the different tools on the board, such as the door handles. Music has been a massive hit this month and the Chicklets have been very excited to see Kimberly from Shake, Rattle and Boogie. A lot of the children now say 'hello' and 'goodbye' to Boogie Bear. Quite a few children have started to show off their singing skills and join in with some of their favourite tunes, such as: 'Wind the Bobbin Up' and 'If You’re Happy and you Know It’. Home Learning Activity: Now that the weather is getting warmer, can you make your own water play activity? This can be in the garden or even at bath time. You can add bubbles to the water or make it a different colour with food colouring!
