The children have been spending lots of time in their outdoor area this week. We have been discussing how their environment is changing now that we've moved into Autumn. The children have enjoyed finding, looking at and drawing leaves and acorns. 

The children also really enjoyed den building outside this week. They worked together as a team to build the den and keep it from blowing away in the wind! They especially liked using the mallet to hammer the pegs in, which was a great opportunity to develop their fine motor skills!
