🌿🌸 Magic mud 🌿🌸

Have you tried this before? It’s a great science experiment for children to explore.

You can use mud only but if you want a splash of colour, begin by mixing Bicarbonate Soda to colourful sand or powdered paint equal ratio for each.

Then add white vinegar using pipettes to help strengthen those fine motor muscles ☺️ let the fizzing magic commence.

💛LITTLE PEOPLE LIKE ME 💛
These charming, tactile play people have been designed to represent different skin tones, helping children identify with the figures and see themselves in play. Their minimal features and neutral expressions allow children to attribute any emotion to them, making imaginative play and storytelling completely open ended.

These creative rollers uncover a variety of patter

These creative rollers uncover a variety of patterns and textures inspired by nature while enhancing fine motor skills. Children will love the sensory experience as they move the rollers in different directions to produce continuous tactile designs. Deciding which way to roll – whether round and round, up and down, or free flow – and experimenting with different pressure levels adds an extra layer to their tactile adventure, improving coordination. The unique design of the rollers also strengthens children’s hand muscles, building the foundation for mark-making and future handwriting.

How vibrant is this sensory play by • @mylittlegirltribe featuring our fruit and vegetable stones 🍓🍇🌽🥦🍄🧄🥕🍊🥝

They write:
“I used various pasta shapes and painted them, arranged them on a clear tray, and added colorful fruit and vegetable stones! I provided real pots, pans, and utensils for role-playing.

We had lots of soup-making, pie-baking, and stirring and mixing! Imaginations were sparked, and the kids sat exploring and playing together, having conversations about who was eating what! 😀

I always use paint to colour any sensory materials! Just cheap children’s paint... coat the pasta and let it dry for 20 minutes! “✨️

**Unboxing: Worry Stones**

These tactile stones are designed to soothe and calm children, helping them focus, concentrate, and feel secure—key elements for productive learning. By holding or rubbing a stone, a child’s sensory input is engaged, which helps relieve stress and anxiety, freeing their mind to focus on the task at hand.

🦋🍃 **Join the Butterfly Count!** 🍃🦋

Do you love butterflies?🦋🌸

Butterflies are not only beautiful, but they also help our gardens grow. Grab your magnifying glasses and let’s see how many we can find. Remember to look for butterflies of all colours and sizes. 🍃💛🦋

Here’s how to join in the fun:

1. **Find a Garden or Park**: Butterflies love flowers, so a garden or park is the perfect place to start.
2. **Look Closely**: Be gentle and quiet so you don’t scare the butterflies away.
3. **Count and Record**: How many butterflies can you see? Count them and tell a grown-up to write it down.
4. **Share Your Findings**: Tell us how many butterflies you found and which ones were your favourites!

Let’s see how many butterflies we can count together! 🦋💛

They wrote: “My wildflowers are in full bloom, so I knew I needed to have some fun with them.”

🌸✨ Nature Weaving with Wildflowers 🌼🎨

Looking for a creative and hands-on activity to bring nature into your classroom? Try nature weaving! 🌿

I took my nature weaving frames from @yellow_door_education and @scholarschoice, ventured into the meadow, and had a blast weaving beautiful wildflowers. The result? A stunning and vibrant masterpiece created by Mother Nature herself! 🌷🧵
