Sun Hats at KIDSPACE

We have had a discussion about sun hats today. Cancer Society guidelines are that children should wear sunhats for the first and third term, however, as the weather has been particularly mild we have needed to extend it up till now. This week there has been a noticeable drop in the temperature so we are dispensing with sunhats until the spring. We will still leave the hat bin out for children who choose to wear a hat but will not insist on them wearing one. Of course we will still monitor this especially over the warmest part of the day and teachers will model wearing a hat if it is particularly warm. Irene

Coconuts

Have a look at Jude's display on the artroom wall about coconuts.
Jude brought a coconut to KIDSPACE yesterday and the children had a day to think of how to smash it open. This they did today then we ate the coconut flesh. Ask your child how they liked it (a few spat the coconut flesh out) and see how it was done in our photos.
