πŸŽƒπŸ‘» A Spooktacular Visit to Bowthorpe Farm! πŸ‘»πŸŽƒ

Today, we had a very wet visit to Bowthorpe to enjoy all things Halloween! πŸŒ§οΈπŸŽƒ But the rain certainly didn’t dampen our spooky spirits, and the children had a fantastic time exploring the farm!

🚜 We enjoyed going on the tractors, playing in the sandpit, meeting all the animals and having a fun explore of the hay barn. We even got to choose our very own pumpkins to take home! πŸŽƒπŸ§‘

What a wonderful morning full of fun, exploration and Halloween magic! πŸ§™β€β™€οΈβœ¨

We’re now getting super excited for our Halloween party tomorrow! πŸ•·οΈπŸ¦‡πŸ‘»

This week we have been learning about Harvest thanks to our friend Remi, from the β€˜Let’s Grow’ program.

Remi is only a baby, so we had to look after him really well and use our gentle hands. Remi wants to be a baker when he’s older, so we made lots of bread and cakes in the playdough for him.

We talked about crops and how they need to be harvested before the weather turns cold, playing with vegetables in the soil and using the tractors to harvest the veg.

Later on in the week, we had a go at making our own potato wedges. We talked about being safe with the knives and using the bridge method to hold the vegetable. It was a huge success and everyone loved them!

We also continued learning about colour mixing and mixed the paints to paint pictures of apples. We looked at a variety of apples and the different colours. 😊
