New stuff

For our first day back from spring break we introduced textures added to natural coulored playdoh. 
For this sensory experience, the children had a variety of legumes to work with as well as snipping fresh cilantro and basil into the mix.
Some children enjoyed smelling the herbs and others turned up their noses. All enjoyed the opportunity to cut with scissors. This activity is a great way to introduce scissor use at home in a safe,fun and sensory way.



Tray tasking activities are always popular. It is a time for children to work on an activity on their own or with a friend taking turns.


These activities generally have many small pieces so they are better contained in trays or on the table so the pieces stay all together. 


Another favourite toy is the wooden castle. Our table castle blacks have been in use for months so we added another dimension to the play experience.

The children were happy to see each other again after being away for two weeks. 
We all would be happy to see some spring weather now.
