Growing Topic

[Guest]

Hi all, I need some new ideas for my growing topic please. We are doing stories all about growing - Eddie's garden, Jasper's beanstalk ect.......... we have looked at seeds, planted seeds, digging things in our digging area, flower pots and compost. Lots of measuring, tracing around bodies and feet - pretending to be giants, weighing. Making giants soup with veg in the water tray, green water and watering cans. Garden centre role play and cafe, making seed packets, giant's castle in a big box, masks for Jack and Beanstalk, green playdough, making flowers, vegetable printing..........................all ideas welcome thanks Ger

Ger, there are some plans somewhere as this has definitely been covered before. Look in the resource bank and in topic section.

Have fun.

Have you read Sue's article 'Growing Topic'? You can find it here. I'll move this into the Growing forum where you'll find other ideas too.

We're watching tadpoles and carrot tops grow at the moment. Just taken delivery of some caterpillars for our butterfly nursery.
