Rainy day fun.

Today some of the morning children began exploring how to make Pom poms, they worked with Ashleigh and Brenda to cut out the circles out of cardboard and then began watching with curiosity as they got shown how to begin making their very own Pom pom.

The children showed how well they could perservere with difficulty as they took their time threading the wool through the small hole and around the cardboard. We noticed as they worked alongside each other they were very busy concentrating on what they were doing so that they could achieve their goal of making a Pom Pom. You have worked hard, kua mahi kaha.

The children really enjoyed choosing the colour of the wool they wanted to use and then waited patiently for it to be connected to the previous colour for them to start treading again. When things are difficult don’t give up, ka pakeke te haere kaua e hemo.


The children tested their hand eye coordination and patience as they worked for a long period of time alongside each other on a common goal. 

We look forward to seeing if the children will return to their half made Pom poms tomorrow that are ready and waiting to be finished.
