Uu – Under

What a fun two weeks we had learning all about the creatures under the sea. All with a well-deserved break in-between.  

The Happy Hoppers was very busy this week with all fine and gross motor activities. They did so well with their pencil control with the fun under the sea activity. They loved moving their body to the jelly fish song and for art they made some magic with a starfish salt painting. The amazement the showed when the saw how the salt lets the food colouring spread was so fun to watch. 

We were so proud of the Hoppers showing patience with the tortoise race. And the great posture they displayed. The picked up the instructions of the activity very quickly and understood that slow and steady wins the race! 

For yoga, this week The Happy Hoppers worked on picture and pose association once again. There were a variety of pictures with animals and transport. Some pictures have numbers 1-5; we did various breath work according to the number. The Hoppers matched or poses according to the pictures, lion, elephant, monkey, crocodile, motorcycle, train, dolphin, and eagle. We ended our session with 3 minutes of relaxing time. 

We are looking forward Mommy/Daddy and Me Yoga next week … see you there!

Travel and Holidays

The Happy Hoppers used their imagination to go in a Holiday with an aeroplane. We re-enacted how to book our tickets, pack our bags, drive to the airport, and check in with our tickets. Lastly, we had a fun fly around with our arms stretched out wide! It truly was so much fun watching the children emerge themselves into the activity.

Cooking and Food

This week was all about cooking and boy did we have fun! For our first activity we focused on our fine motor skills by threading fresh fruit onto skewers. Our fruit kebabs were enjoyed by all the Happy Hoppers. Next, we had our taste buds dancing by creating our very own Calzones. We used wraps as the base, and the kids could choose their own toppings to put on. There was only one word for them: Yum!
