Out with the old, in with the new! That's what we say!
Today, we converted the dramatic play area so that it reflects our seed study. We removed all of the materials in the area that did not pertain to a gardening focus, and brought in a slew of new materials, including fabric flowers, picnicking items, butterfly headbands, and more.
At morning meeting, we had a discussion about what kinds of things that we can play in our new "dramatic garden" area. Friends came up with ideas for planting, being superheros that need to stop animals from eating the pants, picnicking, being garden monsters, suggesting creating a garden play production, and more.
Our excitement towards seeds and gardening is also starting to extend towards bugs. We've been noticing ants and other insects on our playground, so we brought out Eric Carle's "The Very Quiet Cricket Game". Remembering our board game study, small groups cooperatively played and were very respectful towards the other players.
