Day 4 and all the eggs have hatched!

Some of the children and their parents went on a wee trip to Gorgie Farm this week and saw all the Spring animals that we have been talking about recently.

It’s that time of year again and the children are enjoying watching the live eggs as they crack and hatch.

We found our first chick this morning when we arrived in nursery and have been watching closely for the next egg to hatch.

The weather was fantastic today and all the children spent most of the day in the garden. They were able to have books, Lego and animals outside which are usually kept for indoors and of course lots of water play!!

We have been practising recognising names and letters this week and made our initials on some cup cakes for extra practise.

Our nursery janitor is on holiday this week and the sand pit needed filled so what should we do?!

No problem, up stepped Liam, Marcel and Max with their wheelbarrows. The boys had great fun and did a great job collecting the sand and filling up the sand pit ready for playtime.

The warmer weather has meant lots more insects in the nursery garden for the children to observe. Today Kieran found a ladybird and managed to hold it on a twig for the others to see and Viki gently carried a Caterpillar and put it on a leaf so that we could all watch its movement.
