Today is world Bee Day and throughout the week we have been celebrating with our bee-themed sensory rice tray. The children have enjoyed lots of discussions about different types of bees and why bees are important to our world.
Throughout the activity we incorporated counting, numbers, pouring, textures and mark making using the honey stirrers. The children explored the sensory textures of the rice whilst developing their fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and early maths language.
The children showed curiosity as they scooped, poured and created marks and patterns, engaging in imaginative play and wonderful conversations together. 🐝🍯
