Vehicle Play at the Dough Table

We are lucky to have a selection of toy vehicles around the kindergarten that children enjoy using in their play. These cars are provided in different ways often including ramps, roading mats and pipes for the children use to enhace their play. However one place that children always take vehicles to is the dough table, as you can see Zac and Thomas using tractos and at the dough table in the photos.

It was exciting observing and listening to Thomas and Zac in their pay today, using the buckets on the tractos to pick up, transport and then dump the dough. This was put into specific places, either a designated area or into the trailers that were parked in a very particlar way. The sounds that the boys were making indicated that the tractors were working hard, beeping as they reversed and louder sounds were heard as they drove over piles of dough. After driving over the dough there were tread marks left behind which caught Zac's interest. He got Thomas's attention and together they tracked the small lines with their fingers along the dough before creating more tracks with the tractors!
