    what a silly thing to ask you to do!!

    You offer a broad range of activities throughout the day that cover all areas of learning... children's play should not be manipulated like that!

    Ok... rant over...

    Cooking - make some playdough and play with it -

    psed - working together, sharing

    Pd - mixing, fine motor skills with playdough, hand washing

    C & L - talking about ingredients

    Lit - make playdough letters and numbers

    maths - weights and measures

    Uw - simple science

    a & d - put some glitter in the stuff!

    Hth

    I always found if I set up a home corner I could manage to link childrens obs to all the areas of learning - particularly useful if i noticed one area was a little less 'covered' than the others in the lj. Iwould always have a few pics of children in the home corner I could link .

    To be fair most activities could be linked - walking along a log outside is largely physical. But we can count steps , introduce new language , pretend to be animals , take turns and help each other............

    PD - using spoon to stir, whisk to beat eggs
