Fireworks

This week the children have been excitedly talking about fireworks. They have been watching displays on the large screen and developing some descriptive language. They have represented firework displays through art by blowing paint and  expressing themselves through movement.

We also made some edible fireworks using bread sticks and sprinkles.
