The Preschoolers have been exploring, learning and having conversations about seeds, leaves, soil, flowers and thinking about “How things grow”.
They have been enjoying our sensory table working with real dirt using rakes, spades, and shovels. The Science table has had an array of leaves, plants, seeds and books to explore. The children have made threaded bird feeders and have hung them around the school for the birds to eat. They have also created their own flower and plant pictures.
The children are particularly excited to share with you their latest recipe for “Dirt cake”. They made it together using chocolate pudding, gummy worms, marshmallows, and crumbled up wheat and dairy free chocolate cookies: – ). After a thorough mixing, the “Dirt Cake” was shoveled into a pot and a beautiful flower planted in it. Moments later, it was served up with a spade and enjoyed by all! See the photos of our all of our fun activities.
Great fun! My son was a very big fan of ‘Dirt Cake’ and is very proud of his bird feeder.
