Nursery Water Experimentation - the children have been exploring how water flows. They have been very resilient, learning how to fill and poor.
Friday the 10th January was a very cold day, in the afternoon we decided to wrap up warm and went for a Winter walk around the school grounds. When we got back Mrs Rooke made us some hot chocolate and cookies just like Percy did in One Snowy Night.







We were visited today by two gorgeous donkeys called Finn and Flash.

Recipe for play dough, this is how Mrs Rooke makes it in nursery
1 cup of plain flour
1 cup of salt
1 cup of water
2 tablespoons of cooking oil
Half a teaspoon of cream of tartar/small sachet
Few drops of food colouring
Mix all the ingredients together and place in a microwave for 1 minute 20 seconds and stir. Repeat for 20 seconds at a time stirring each time until the right consistency is achieved.
It will be very hot so make sure to cool it down, the children love feeling the warm playdough. Enjoy!
This makes quite a bit of playdough but it keeps quite well because of the salt which acts as a preservative. Wrap in clingfilm when not in use to prevent it from drying out.
