May Newsletter Goslings Room News

The Goslings have been very busy over the past few weeks, with a visit from the Easter Bunny and celebrating lots of festivals. We started off with all things Easter where the Goslings showed off their creative side by using materials such as paper, feathers, glue and paint in messy play activites. We also had our Easter Bonnet competition, which so many of our children participated in and were so proud to show off their decorations! To finish our celebrations, we had an Easter Egg Hunt in the Baby Garden, which was so exciting. The children were each given a basket and helped each other find all the hidden eggs. The Goslings have shown lots of interest in learning about animals this month, and they have shown particular interest in hearing the sounds. In order to encourage this interest, we our activities have been orientated around animals, with a particular focus bugs, zoo and sea animals. To celebrate Eid, the children made some lovely moon and star decorations using foil, and we also enjoyed lots of sensory tuff trays with coloured rice and paint for different textures. They also enjoyed creating henna patterns using fine paint brushes. The Goslings have also begun to enjoy sharing pictures of their family and friends every week during our story times, which is a great way to encourage their speech and language. Please keep sharing photos of what your child gets up to on non-nursery days, as it helps us with our planning.
