Nursery, Some Sponges and a Giant Caterpillar

Date: 16th Oct 2024 @ 9:18pm

Sometimes all you need is a giant caterpillar, some water and a couple of sponges and then watch the learning unfold! We had provided water and sponges in the outdoor provision so the children could wash the windows but quiet often they have their own ideas! The children decided that the caterpillar was very dirty and needed a good scrub! They worked together with some children pouring water on the caterpillar and others scrubbing him with the sponges. They talked to each other as they worked about how the caterpillar had got dirty, commenting when he was clean and negotiating using  resouces. The end result was a very shiny caterpillar!
