The past month has flown by, and we made the most of every moment together. The weather was on our side, bringing milder temperatures that allowed us to spend plenty of time outdoors. The Bears enviroment eagerly explored winter play by using shovels and child-safe tools to dig and build in the snow. We also enjoyed sledding and playing active games, making the most of the fresh air while staying engaged and happy. For example, some children worked together to build small snow structures, while others created “snow kitchens” and imaginative play scenes.
We had lots of fun in the gym, where children took part in their favourite games such as “Oli Oli Octopus” and tag. Activities like skipping, basketball, and dodgeball gave everyone a chance to stay active and practise coordination. The Bears showed great energy, speed, and teamwork, cheering each other on and celebrating their successes.
In addition to physical activities, we explored hands-on learning experiences. One highlight was preparing a simple vegetable borscht together, which they later enjoyed at lunch. This activity helped us learn about food, cooperation, and following steps in a fun and meaningful way.
Creativity was also a big part of our month. The children made butterflies and flowers from napkins, then painted them using food colouring, experimenting with colours and textures. They also spent time building with wooden blocks, creating a variety of structures such as towers, houses, and imaginative designs. These activities supported their creativity, problem-solving, and fine motor skills.
Overall, it has been a joyful and active month filled with learning, creativity, and meaningful play. We are proud of the Bears for their enthusiasm, teamwork, and growing confidence in all areas.
