Bonfire Night 2015

The children were very excited about the possibility of seeing some fireworks this evening so we sat and talked a little about fire safety and never picking anything from the ground in case it was hot. We then set about creating some pictures of the things we might see.

The children made firework pictures, choosing the colours they wanted and then using straws taped together as stamps. They stamped around and swished it several times to depict the matters of fireworks within the sky. The gold glitter paint gave a lovely sparkle to the pictures. Our one year old thought this was fantastic and really got into the stamping motion!

We also used our hands to make some bonfire pictures - a lovely sensory activity for all the children. To add to the sensory experience we stuck on logs made from samples of material differing in textures.
