Today we made some edible play-dough for the Little Seedlings to manipulate, use cutters and mould into shapes. It was fantastic for the babies to play with because it was completely edible.
Charlie and Alfie sat well together and used cutters to make some shapes. Unfortunately the dough got stuck in the moulds, we added extra cornflower to make it more malleable and easier to play with.
The babies started the activity having sprinkles and chocolate stars on their trays.
They were given the Play-dough and were encouraged to move it around their trays to collect up all the sprinkles to make it tastier.
Because we normally use Play-dough and our rules are not to put it in our mouths Alfie was apprehensive to try and taste it. He watched everyone else have a go first. He soon got stuck in and had a go, he didn’t like the taste but loved the sprinkles.
Charlie tried to convince Emma and Tracie he hadn’t eaten any! Think this picture tells a different story.
