Snowmen and Penguins!


After a chilly winter morning in the park we decided to warm up with a little winter craft sessions. The children were rather disappointed that we did not get snow in this part of the country today so we first decided to make our own snowmen with the help of some cottonwool. 


I placed all the items out for the children and let them design their own snowmen. Whilst some resembled the traditional approach, the younger children just enjoyed the sticking activity and designed their own version!


The children love using their hand and footprints so we next set about our footprint penguins - this caused much hilarity due to some very ticklish feet! After decorating their penguins we used this activity to continue awareness of letter sounds. The children practised saying the 'p' sounds, tried to think of other words beginning with this sound and then attempted to write the letter.
