St Patrick's Before & After School Care

Children have been enjoying the new sandpit equipment this week, sharing their discoveries with one another. The new toys fostered both creativity and collaboration, which allowed the children to immerse themselves in imaginative play while also encouraging teamwork and communication. They built tunnels, castles, and lots of foods. 

This week our cooking experience was making sushi. Children took it in turns to helping Marijana make the sushi. Children chose there ingredients to put into their sushi rolls. Children chose from chicken, tuna, carrot, cucumber, and mayonnaise.

Play dough is a great sensory experience which can be used by children of all ages to manipulate. They can squish it, punch it, thump  it, roll it , press it and more. It develops a child’s hand eye coordination, improves motor skills and sparks creativity. Children love creating food out of the play dough and serving it to their friends.
