The 3 year olds have been keeping extremely busy with the holiday program. We have been planting the herbs parsley, basil and mint in the veggie garden promoting empathy. We extended on this experience by making punch, juicing oranges and adding strawberries, kiwi fruit and mint leaves for a fresh flavour. The children were involved and interested and very eager to taste the punch. The majority of them went for a second taste.
We experimented with shaking cream in a bottle , adding marbles to create butter. After a 30 minute procedure the consistency thickened ! The children all had a taste of the butter on biscuits.
We also made some beautiful butterfly paintings mixing colours the children were able to take home and continued to go to the 'Big Oval' for runs, stories under the tree, group games and yoga.
