Today, the CDLL had visitors from CMU come in and explore nature with the children. They brought dirt and worms. The children were encouraged to dig in the dirt and find worms. The children talked about how the worms felt and what they saw! This was very interesting to the children and most visited the area or wished they had had time to visit!
In the Walnut Room, cups were added to the magnet wall area. Below Ayden W. and Alexander explore the uses of the cups when sliding wooden balls and marbles along the ramps.
There were also smaller pieces similar to the magnet wall added to the Walnut Room. The children are able to connect the various pieces and see how the marbles move through them. Below Allen is working on making a route for his marbles to move.
In the hallway, more musical instruments were added. Below David and Laura are exploring the different options available.
Lately in the CDLL, the indoor movement room has had an obstacle course for the children to work toward mastering! There are tunnels to crawl through, loops to step through and stairs to balance on! At the end, they toss stuffed items into a bin. The children have really enjoyed this activity!
