This week has been wellbeing week.
We have been reading the story “After the Fall: how Humpty Dumpty got back up again” by Dan Santat. Humpty Dumpty became scared of heights after he fell off the wall and the children thought of different things they could say to him to encourage him to keep trying to get back to the top of the wall where he loved to be.
You can do it! Keep on trying! Don’t give up. Keep going! If you keep going you will learn.
The children made their own Humpty Dumpty out of clay showing how he was feeling.
As part of wellbeing week the children also enjoyed a Yoga session in the hall where they enjoyed relaxing and moving their bodies.
This week in nursery we explored the concept of wellbeing. It was explained that wellbeing was about feeling good and thinking of the things and the people that make us happy. Many of the children said ‘mummy’, there were also a few that said ‘daddy’ too.
This week, as part of Dental Health Awareness week, I discussed with the children the importance of brushing your teeth day and night. We watched a fun animated song on the smart board and each child had the chance to brush their teeth in school- an experience that all the children found fun and interesting, comparing toothpaste and brushes.
As next week is Valentines, the children have been getting crafty making some wonderful craft creations.
