This month in Little Stars we have enjoyed getting back into routine after the Christmas break and welcoming some new friends into the room. We have been enjoying lots of free play to encourage the children to use their imagination and encourage turn taking with the different toys. We have also enjoyed using our gross motor skills to play on the soft play with our friends and run around in the garden, climbing on the bridge and going up the steps of the slide. We have really enjoyed getting creative with some mark making and painting activities. We encouraged children to paint the bottom of dinosaur feet to make footprints on paper and to roll cars in paint to make different tyre tracks. When we came back after the Christmas break, the children also enjoyed doing some painting activities to celebrate the new year!
