We took a trip to Saltburn Valley Gardens to see what signs of Autumn we could spot. We also had fun finding all the things from 'We're going on a Bear Hunt'.

Kids Cook Episode 1

Creamy chicken pie with new potatoes and mixed veg.

This week we recieved our first beautiful letter from http://www.lettersfromafar.com/, which told us all about Morocco. Everyone was so excited we set up some fabulous areas in our playroom to explore and discover Moroccan culture.

We had a bright and colourful market stall with natural treasures, glass bottles, metal lamps, herbs, spices, fruits and veg. We also loved our calming mandala colouring area and camel saddling small world set up.

The children also loved getting a tast of Morocco with some chicken kebabs, vegetable tagine, cous cous and dried fruits.
Our young children also have been learning about maps and atlas' as well as finding place we know on the maps.

Caterpillar Study

12/9/2017

We found this stunning eyed hawk moth caterpillar this week, we brought him home and fed him lots of apple leaves. The children studied him and painted pictures of it for their nature journals. He is now starting to turn into a chrysalis, we are hoping to see him emerge next summer.
