Autumn is the season of change and this week we have been exploring the changing colours we see during this time of year.

Inspired by the books, ‘Mouse Paint’, by Ellen Stoll Walsh and ‘Mix it Up’, by Hervé Tullet, we experimented mixing primary colours together to create secondary colours. We then explored what happens when we mixed all the primary colours together, creating brown!

The Colour Monsters came back to nursery this week. We discussed how colours make us feel and the children helped sort the monster’s feeling into their colour jars.

Our nook under the stairs became the Little Red Hen’s kitchen. The children dressed up and baked delicious loaves of bread. The creative role play spilled into the class with the small world story props as the children retold this well-known fable.
