Good Morning …HELLO EVERYONE……….Have you heard the birds again!!
On my morning walk yesterday birds singing was all I could hear… it was just so beautiful. I had not realised that it was International Dawn Chorus day on 3rd May. The birds were certainly singing their hearts out …as they got ready for the busy day ahead! Have you heard the birds sing louder and louder on your walks?
I know that flower pressing has captured your interest. It is a beautiful, classic art. The images I have been sent will last for years in your homes. They are GORGEOUS and contain real natural items.

Beautiful Natural images

In a gallery this would be worth a fortune..
Cooking has also continued to be a strong interest. Helping to cook dinner and cooking playdough. You are both looking so grown up and skilled.
- Helping to cook dinner
- EVEN stirring the dinner ..well done
- Stirring the playdough…Handwriting and you didn’t know it!!
Yesterday as well as hearing the birds singing I tried Mrs Breakwell’s challenge of blowing the dandelion trumpet...I WAS RUBBISH! I could not make any sound at all. I hope you were all better than me.
I JUST love the different ways that you are being creative as families. Look at this LIGHT…..
I wonder what creative explorations you will try this week? I’ve started crocheting mini snails for my nephew’s birthday. Mine is a little bigger!
.
So today’s challenge is about making Mini collections … Below are two photos of an egg box a family used when they were completing the counting to ten challenge. BRILLIANT THINKING. The last photo shows how we all find and discover different things that we find fascinating and want to keep. What will you find?
- Numbers written onto the box
- Items you like selected to fit into your container.
- What would you choose to collect?
- What small items will you collect and put into your egg box sections?
- What is the smallest item that you can find to place in your egg box?
Miss Lofthouse wondered if you might like to send a HUGE hug to someone special and to the people you miss. It will bring a HUGE smile to their faces!
How BIG will your hug be? Who will you send your HUGE hug too?
- How big will your hug be?
- How big will your hands be?
- How creative will you be?
