It’s all gone “quackers” at Monkey Puzzle, Orient Close in July… The children in all age groups were so excited when an incubator with 6 eggs arrived in the nursery reception area and over the next couple of days, we witnessed the magical event of 6 baby ducklings hatching out! The children had the opportunity to experience watching the ducks grow, holding them, feeding them and watching with interest as they splashed and swam in their paddling pool. The ducks are always very amusing to watch and we all love having them, but they also allow for a magical learning journey regarding life cycles, growth, emotional literacy and not to mention starting points for interesting discussions and language. Also this month, Red Monkeys have been recycling old spray bottles and using them as an interesting mark-making tool by squirting bright coloured paint onto paper in the outside area, pretending to be artists! The oldest children have then be signing their finishes pieces with their names; practicing how to trace over the letters and learning the phonic sounds.
