EYFS Love Underpants

27th September 2019M Hanratty

As part of our Dinosaur topic, Reception and Nursery have enjoyed the story “Dinosaurs Love Underpants” this week. We made our own dinosaur paintings and created some patterned underpants by printing with shapes.

Reception had some lovely patterned underpants to look at and, shamefully, I stole them and hid them in my bag after talking about the different patterns with Nursery. Luckily, they have forgiven me and Sophie even made me a pair of my own so I won’t steal theirs again.

I am so sorry Reception and I promise to never do it again!

Chocolate Mud!

6th September 2019M Hanratty

The Nursery children had a great time exploring mark making using running dinosaur mud (chocolate whip)! We looked at the different footprints the dinosaurs made and created some patterns and shapes of our own using our fingers.
The best part was being able to lick our fingers at the end!
