This morning is was very peaceful in the garden. The children were so involved in their play that we could hear the birds chirping and the water dripping in the puddles. The water trough was out and so were lots of water toys like buckets, water wheels, boats and watering cans. The orange water was transported from one trough to the other by the children and again onto the ground to make puddles to splash around in.
All the children worked alongside each other so well sharing the toys and the space around the troughs. Through their play they were thinking about and learning about weight and volume as they filled their buckets and watering cans; and also developing working theories about water and its properties and they way it made the water wheels spin around.
We had a fantastic morning playing with the water splashing about and breaking the silence in the garden with our laughter. Have a look at the photos which share the enjoyment the children had in their play this morning.
