This week we have been celebrating Chinese New Year which falls on February 1st. This year will be the year of the tiger. 🐯

We started the week by making dragon masks. At New Year it is traditional to dress up in dragon costumes and dance, which is supposed to bring good luck.🐲

We also coloured some rice, which the children enjoyed playing with.

This week the children tried to eat some noodles for snack using chopsticks. Although this was quite hard, it was easier than when we tried to use them to pick up smarties! 🍜

To extend the sorting activities that we have been doing lately we decided to sort things by shape and colour this week.
