The toddler children have been ‘busy bodies’ over the last few weeks. In our topic, All About Me, we have been exploring ‘Me and My Body’ and this week we have been using our senses in a variety of activities – including tasting lemons and making lemonade. Hmm… tasting lemons. Do you think the toddlers liked the taste or not?
We have been on a walk about around school listening to various sounds – the rustling and crunching of leaves when picking them up, the chirping of the baby quail and chicks, the grinding of stones with our feet, the splashing of water going through funnels and the zooming of planes in the sky.
The highlight of the week (definitely for Ms. Rachel and Ms. Shara) was the making of lemonade. First, we smelled the lemons and then tasted them. Surprisingly, most children loved the taste! We squeezed the juice and sweetened it with a little sugar. Finally, we enjoyed the refreshing taste of homemade lemonade!
