This week our theme was shopping, and it turned out to be such a wonderful and engaging learning experience for our Bugs. 

During our theme discussion, we explored the different types of items we can find in various shops, such as food, clothes, and household goods. We also spoke about the importance of being safe while shopping, including staying close to an adult and walking carefully in busy areas. The Bugs were especially interested when we discussed how moms and dads pay for their items at the shops. Most of them confidently explained that they use money, and we were so proud to see how much they already know and understand. 

For art, the Bugs had so much fun creating their own money notes, which they decorated beautifully with stickers, drawings, and colours. They also made little wallets to keep their pretend money in, which they will use during our upcoming shopping play activity. It was wonderful to see their creativity and excitement as they worked on these projects. In addition to our theme art, we continued working on our Christmas artwork, and the Bugs have been putting in an incredible amount of effort. We are sure that parents will be delighted to see the beautiful pieces they have created once everything is complete. 

During FunFit Sports, Coach Trevor set up an exciting activity where the Bugs had to stand inside a hula hoop and catch a ball that he threw to them. This activity helped to strengthen their hand-eye coordination and concentration, and they all participated with great enthusiasm. Each child tried their best and showed noticeable improvement as the game went on. 

To round off our week, we continued revising our colours, shapes, and numbers. The Bugs enjoyed engaging in different fun learning games that helped them remember what we have been practicing. It has truly been a busy and productive week filled with learning, creativity, and laughter. We are so proud of each and every Bug for their effort, focus, and excitement throughout the week.
