Shining Stars

This month in Shining Stars we have been doing lots of summer activities. We have been decorating our summer board with arts and crafts that represent summer – we have been painting, sticking, and drawing; improving our hand muscles and fine motor control. We have turned the role play area into an Ice Cream Parlour, which the children love! They have been using the tills to take orders, scooping the different flavoured ice creams for their friends, using lots of imagination. We have also enjoyed pretending to go on holiday which was completely child-led. We have been on trains, planes, and buses to go to the beach. The children have been enjoying the nicer weather, exploring the garden and getting creative with different resources, eg. the tubes, logs, tyres and wooden blocks. We also played giant snakes and ladders, which was lots of fun and a great way to practice turn taking and counting!
