Child voice in the Sensory Garden

Today, children in Cassatt class decided to develop the sensory garden in the outside area, by extending our Minibeast hotel! 


We used sticks and wire to create our structures, and the children decided whether they would like to roll their sticks into a bundle or hang them from the fence. Some children chose to hang them from the fence "for butterflies to land on" and others thought that having the sticks on the the ground would mean "lots of bugs could crawl in and hide".


After creating our 'extension', Laura and Rory decided to use an old piece of wood for a woodlouse home. They hammered the remaining smaller sticks into the hole in the wood so that there were lots of nooks and crannies for the woodlice to hide.
