heres a little something extra for valentines day

What mum, dad, nan or pop wouldn't love one of these for valentines day?
might have to give this one a go today with the children at our centre

This eggstravagent egg provocation is cool. I can only imagine what ideas and questions the children would have. At our centre we would even be lucky enough to follow it up with some real eggs hatching as we have an amazing educator who has an incubator and duck eggs for us to watch hatch.
I hope you are finding some inspiration for new experiences for the children at your centre or your children at home. If you have anything in particular you are wanting to follow up on but just cant get inspiration let us know by commenting or sending an email and we will see what we can come up with for you. you can email us directly at spectacularkidsminiplayscapes@gmail.com

how inviting is this little set up! I would love to get in there and cook some mud pies! I am sure the children would be a lot more creative with their cooking than that.
