This week the children really enjoyed welcoming some new members to Nursery. The children waited patiently and hatched out 14 little chicks which was a fantastic experience for them to be a apart of. We also learnt about the life cycle of a chicken and thought about the ways in which we can care for animals. We decided on food, water and plenty of love! The children enjoyed lots of hands on time with the chicks and came up with some brilliant names such as Eggy Weggy, Chicky Wicky and Rainbow. The children were also inspired to make their own chicks using playdough with a lot of feathers. To continue our caring theme we pretended to be vets in our water area, giving medicine to poorly ducklings and also made friendship bracelets for each other.
