Exploring our 5 Senses in April ~ (ORG)

This month we have an interesting theme,which is:
Our 5 Senses!
 
 We see with our eyes, we smell with our nose, we listen with our ear,
we touch with our hands and we taste with our tongue.
 
 All children listening to the story told by our Story teller, Thanks Claris.
 
 Our activity of the day is to test the children 5 senses.
This is the first one, Smelling. All children get to guess what they are smelling and describe it!
 

Next we are observing using the magnifying glass!

Now we use the ear to hear different sounds....

Then, we use our hands to feel and touch.
Guess what is inside!

Last but not least, we get to taste different taste.... yummy!
Well, she's holding a strawberry there!
 
Overall, we all had fun!

Easter Fun in March ~ (ORG)

After a long break from February, we are back again in March
for the Easter theme Reading Group session.
We start with reading a book to the children.
The title of the book is:
Strawberry Shortcake: Have a Sweet Easter, 2010
by Grosset & Dunlap Penguin Young Readers Group, New York.
Next activity is: Paint the egg!
We have all little ones explore with different colours and patterns.

Here you can see the little bunnies that the children bring and their painted eggs.
 
Oh we also did have some cut and paste fun for the children to
Trace, Cut, Colour and paste.
Here are the paper bunnies that they make!
 
Ooooo, we also have a surprise birthday party
for the child whose birthday falls on March!
The birthday girl's mommy brought in the cake and
all children have fun celebrating!
Seems like it is a snow white theme!
So you know who's the birthday girl?
 
So lastly, all enjoy the cake and the lovely party packs!
Thanks to all who participated;
See you all again in April!

Exciting Rock. Paper. Scissors Day!

It is a hot sunny day, and all children are excited about the Bunny making session with
our guests Artists from Cardpuccino, Ms. Cindy and Ms. Josie.
 The fun begins with the children tracing and cutting away.
You can see how they love the scissors!
They cannot wait to start cutting the bunny ears.
 Now the assembling begins, and tada..... here's the rock bunny!

 Oh look how lovely my bunny is at the garden!
It loves being there too!

 The second session starts by introducing to the children about paper sculpture.
Different techniques are being taught and
they start making them with some colourful papers.
Here's how their paper sculpture look like!
All in 3-dimensional  form! 
Next we did some rock art painting. The children had fun painting it
but due to time constrain, they have to finish it at home!
Well, am glad to say they all had fun!
Thanks to our guest artist Cindy and Josie again.
Hope in future we will have more activities like these!
 
Lastly, thanks to all who participated.
You all make this playgroup fun and exciting!

Valentine Fete!

Love is in the air!
Our Valentine Fete, kick start with making
"The Love Pillow".
Little ones enjoying themselves in decorating the Heart Shape
with Hand and finger painting!
 
Oh Look what I have made!
We will hang this in our room!
 

 
Oh, I have created this little Love Pillar for all mommies and children to take their picture!

 
 Now, it's time to make our Love Sandwiches!
All little ones impressed us all by
making their own sandwich and
insists on putting it all together by themselves!
It was a great challenge for some little kids but they manage it very well.
Oh of course, we love eating it after we make it!
 
Time to have some experiment!
This time we made love potion!
All children get to test out some special effects and stir and smell!
 

This is how we attack the neighbourhood with some lovely hearts!
Heart attack!


Finally, Love is all around us!
We all had lotsa fun!
