Edible Space

This week we explored space themed activities. Firstly we used all of our senses to make edible moon rocks using low sugar biscuits combining them with butter. The children thoroughly enjoyed mashing the biscuits, mixing, moulding, squeezing and most importantly tasting their recipes. This encouraged children to work their fine motor skills whilst exploring a new texture.

To extend we enjoyed a space themed sensory tray with hidden starts and black and white coloured rice. The babies enjoyed using their hand eye coordination and fine motor skills to reach and pick out the stars. We listened to and enjoyed singing twinkle twinkle little star.
