The Toddlers @ Flying Start Marjon have done some amazing Nature Painting this week! They talked about what they wanted to find in the garden, before going on a treasure hunt to find flowers, twigs and leaves. They used their garden treasures to make some beautiful paintings, having great fun seeing the different patterns and shapes they could make.
This week the Preschool children at Flying Start Marjon have been practicing their colour matching! We love the garden toys at the moment, so we decided to use these in our game, throwing the coloured bean bags into matching coloured hoops. It was so much fun!
The Babies @ Flying Start Marjon have fun in the rain!
This week the babies at Marjon have been outside exploring the rain! They practiced putting on their own boots and coats, before heading out to do some jumping in puddles. They collected water in tins and poured it out again, and had lots of fun seeing what happened to chalks when they drew in the water!
Flying Start @ Marjon have fun with kinetic sand!
After we had so much fun with the magic mud last week, Shaz extended the preschool children’s interest by creating some kinetic sand! The children loved making it, and used lots of mathematical language such as more, less, and a lot. They also talked about places around them and tried to make them out of sand, such as the park and the nursery!
Flying Start @ Marjon have been painting to music!
The pre-school children have had an amazing time doing some large scale mark making today! They listened to classical music, painting to the rhythm, and talking about how the music made them feel. The children then extended their activity by making up their own songs while they painted! Look at the beautiful picture that we created together 😊
Flying Start @ Marjon go on a music trip!
The Toddlers at Flying Start Marjon had our very first outing for over a year! We got invited to go to a music workshop being put on at Marjon Performing Arts centre, and we all had so much fun. There was lots of singing and dancing, and we made puppets and musical instruments. Hopefully we can go back again soon!
Flying Start @ Marjon have been gardening!
The Toddlers at Flying Start Marjon have had a great time using their new planting area! We used spades to dig holes in the ground, before planting our new flowers and vegetables. We can’t wait to see them grow!
Flying Start @ Marjon have been growing!
The pre-school children at Marjon have loved exploring growing this week! We have had vegetables in our sensory tray, which we dug up, and talked about what they were and how we could eat them. The children practiced using knives to cut the vegetables, so that we could try them with our snack!
The Toddlers @ Flying Start Marjon have had lots of fun painting!
They have been using a variety of resources including stones and shells to make their own bugs following their interests.
