So my Christmas tree I bought for my house was a little bit too big and bushy so Mr Nunns cut some off for me and I took it to Nursery to show my Jewels. We all smelt it and enjoyed that Christmas smell.
Then we had great fun using the Christmas tree branches to make patterns and marks in the paint. We picked red, green and gold which are traditional Christmas colours and the children had a brilliant time splatting and swirling the branches in the paint. 🙂
In the Jewels this week we have started to learn about what happens at Christmas time and the children have been helping to decorate the nursery making Christmas tree with sparkles and colour.
They have also helped Santa by wrapping lots of presents in the Christmas workshop which has been great for our fine motor skills, wrapping, cutting, tying up ribbons and writing the gift tags.
We have been busy, take a look….
The Jewels had fun this week when we got all the bikes and scooters out! But some children noticed we had no track… so we made our own road using chalk. Then we went round and round it and at times got stuck in some traffic 🙂
Some of the Jewels had their first visit to the forest area in school today. Shayne was there to help and support us and even made a fire for us too. We decorated bear masks with mud and grass and then went on our own bear hunt around the forest, going under, through and over different obstacles.
Then we enjoyed a nice hot chocolate drink and some popcorn and milky ways by the fire! The Jewels were so excited and behaved like such grown up children I was very proud.
Have a look at the messy fun we had…..
