Christmas excitement is in full swing at Little Green Rascals Flaxton with the arrival of our locally sourced Christmas trees! The festive spirit has filled our nursery, sparking curiosity, creativity, and plenty of engaging conversations among our rascals.
As we decorated the tree in preschool, the children practiced their fine motor skills by carefully hanging baubles and ornaments. This hands-on activity encouraged teamwork and creativity, and it was wonderful to see the pride in their faces as the tree came to life with their decorations.
Our rascals also explored new and exciting festive vocabulary, describing the tree with words like: “It’s got PINK!” “It’s a bit spiky.” “Pretty lights.”
These moments of conversation not only captured the children’s excitement but also helped build their language and descriptive skills.
We’re looking forward to hearing more about the children’s festive experiences as they prepare for Christmas with their families. If you’d like to share photos or stories of your holiday preparations, we’d love to hear them!
