🐚 SHELLS 🐚
I put together a lovely counting and matching activity on the weekend! 🪸 Following on from our Rockpool and “Sharing a shell” set ups I decided to go one further and explore different types of shells. Obi really enjoyed this one, especially matching the shell pictures and their shadows 🐚

A little messy, a lot of learning 🌸✨
This blossom-themed sensory tray invites scooping, sorting, pouring, and creating, perfect for curious little hands and growing minds 💗 Baby Bear had so much fun getting hands on with this play dough tray today.
From crunchy sticks to soft sprinkles and squishy dough, every texture supports hands-on discovery and imaginative play:
• Physical Development: building fine motor control, hand strength & coordination
• Communication & Language: describing textures, colours, and actions
• Understanding the World: exploring natural materials & sensory differences
• Expressive Arts & Design: open-ended, creative play
Simple to set up, rich in learning 💫
