November 2026
In Term 2 we started to explore Autumn further, taking the children on walks so they could take in and talk about the season changes. On the walks the children enjoyed collecting natural resources like sticks, pinecones, conkers and some lovely colourful leaves to bring back to the setting to use for crafts or in their play in our outdoor mud kitchen area.
With the natural resources the children have been creative and made their own version of autumn trees, wreaths, leaf printing and little bird’s nests for our outdoor bug hut, exploring what hibernation means for some of the animals. Some children have even used the sticks to create stick families using maths language to describe the sticks they collected. With the children we have made our own bird feeders for the birds to enjoy as the weather gets colder.
