• Explore ice, using any ice cube trays or an old tub that you may find around the house.  You could put some blue food colouring to make it more wintery and if you have any arctic animals or anything else you may think of put them in too and see if they are able to break the object free from the ice, talk to them and ask questions about how the ice melts.

• What’s inside the bag? (game): fill a bag with any objects you can find such as animals. Ask your child if they can feel the toys inside? Can they name the animal or make the correct noise? You can describe the animals and see if they can guess.

• Being able to express and talk about our feeling is so important, especially at this moment in time. Take a look at our feeling scale and ask your child to point at how they are feeling today, can they talk about how they feel? Here is the link for the chart: download.cfm (hacw.nhs.uk)

• We have found a new winter nursery rhyme, we can all try and learn it. Why not make your own snowman using junk modelling, or paint/draw a snowman.  You never know we might even get a little bit of snow today to make a real one!

I’m a Great Big Snowman

(To the tune of ‘I’m a little teapot short and stout’).

I’m a great big snowman,

Tall and fat,

Here’s my tummy,

Here’s my hat.

Buttons for my eyes,

And a carrot nose,

I’m all snow from head to toe!

• Role play is so important for all children in their development, you could set up a teddy bear picnic. Pour the bears are drink, how many cups will you need? How do they bears feel, are they happy or sad? Give the bears some food to eat.

Don’t forget to send in any photos of what you have made or games you have been playing! The Nursery Team really look forward to seeing what you have been up to at home.
