This week, our Kinder friends have had the opportunity to engage in slime play!

“Playing with slime offers significant developmental and therapeutic benefits for kids. It stimulates multiple senses, builds fine motor skills, promotes emotional regulation, and introduces basic chemistry”

May 20th is World Bee Day!

We have been discussing how to “Bee Kind” in the kinder room and also created some bees to display on the wall. Children and educators have worked together to create bees using crafty loose parts!
We also set up a small world play space to explore bees!

Did you know:
🐝 A single worker bee will only produce about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in her entire lifetime.
🐝 Bees have 5 eyes: They possess two large compound eyes and three smaller, simple eyes on top of their heads to detect light.
🐝 Only female bees can sting, and when a honey bee uses hers, the barbed stinger becomes lodged in mammalian skin. When the bee pulls away, she leaves the stinger behind, which is ultimately fatal to the bee.

Recently in the PK room…

Sensory play in the Nursery: Sensory play is crucial for babies because it stimulates brain development, creating neural connections that help them understand the world through their senses!

I spy with my little eye… something growing in the garden!
The kinder veggie garden is still producing amazing vegetables! A little bit more to grow and this little cauliflower will be dished up for lunch soon!

We’ve had a delivery of new learning resources this week and are so excited to be able to share them with the children today!
Games with rules, puzzles and cause and effect activities, just to name a few!
