Christmas has officially started at nursery, take a look at the fun activities we have gotten up to this week, we have had so much fun! 

First, we decorated our Christmas tree, we counted the baubles, and took it in turns to place a decoration onto a branch using out fine motor skills. We counted back from 5 for the grand reveal! 

The next day our elf was dangling from the Christmas lights. He wanted more fun and asked the children to make a paper chain to decorate the ceiling. The children split into 2 groups and had a race to make the longest chain. Our dough disco and funky fingers must be working because we were fab at gluing and bending the paper!

To finish off our week we made festive playdough. We could remember what ingredients we needed and decided to make green playdough, just like our Christmas tree. We took it in turns to pour, scoop, and mix. We were really good at recognising who was next, and waited patiently for our turn. To make our playdough smell like Christmas we added cinnamon. We thought it smelt delicious!
