    I am going to do Harvest. This toplc will lead into learning about fruit and veg and crops of all sorts leading on to healthy eating, growing,cooking, baking and eating things like bread. Also a harvest festival for sharing produce in the community.So quite a few links to PSED there.

    Hi

    We as a family went on a nature trail a week or so back and colleted sticks and pine cones.

    Yesterday me and my DD who is 3 made hanging mobiles for in the garden with them, my DD loved this and now wants to make a hanging mobile for her bedroom.

    I have also made tree pictures using cutouts of the chidlrens hands as the leaves of the tree, let them decorate them in autumn colours and leaves we have collected etc.

    Hope this helps

    We are doing a Squirrel Hunt and collecting acorns, leaves etc and making a collage

    Paint a tree - this one covers just about every are. Paint a childs arm with brown paint and this becomes the trunk. Give them green, red, orange paint to finger paint the leaves falling.

    Hedehog Brea - get a pre pack of bread dough and when it is ready to be used roll it into an oblong, shape a nose and use scissors to spike up the body - cook and eat with homemade soup from harvest vegetables.
