Equipped with our magnifying glasses, we went on a bug hunt in the rain. The children had lots of fun being bug detectives and counted all 8 bugs that they found in order. They shouted “we found them” and “its a lady bird, look!”
We took the small world animals for a swim and a wash in the water tray
Using blocks, logs and natural materials that we found in the garden, we created “houses” for our animals
Back inside, we painted pictures of our favourite animals and did our very best impressions of the noises they make. Roar! Quack! Moo!
