Penguins and Parrots have been very active playing outdoors! ☀️ Playing dinosaur tag, zig zag running, playing with balls. 🦕👣⚽

We have explored painting with stamps, brushes, and hands 🫟. We also had our open music lesson! Children had a great time singing and playing with the materials. And even parents too 🪇.
