Today we went for a walk to see something new. We have seen photos and signs showing the Brock firepit and today we saw it in person.
We used our pretend fire to practise and discuss what the rules would be at a campfire. The children explored the area and found a waterfall. They needed to move along the railing to see where the water was coming from. As the rain came down harder the waterfall flowed quicker. The children did some brainstorming and figured out the water was coming from a storm drain. The children could see first hand the connection from the rain fall to water flow. Next time we come it may be for an actual fire. By S Robitaille

Winter is here. Which means FOZEN PUDDLES!! So many things to learn when a puddle is frozen. The thickness and strength can be a safety lesson. The more slippery (less friction) the more fun and danger. Then there are surprises like bubbles. They can make mazes to follow with a stick or mitt. They can look like islands. They can inspire printing in the snow. Or try to crack the floating ice in the swamp. So much learning and fun with ice. By S Robitaille |
