Learning
about Lambs!!
Our environment in the countryside gives us the
opportunity to allow our children a unique experience of touching
smelling and watching these young lambs as they are fed.
A local farmer with whom we have links, kindly
brought in two lambs for an hour , as you can see the children loved
them, all age groups participated in stroking, touching and watching
the little animals.
He set up a pen in the grounds and all the
children from the entire nursery had the opportunity to stroke the
lambs, look at a recently shorn fleece, learn about what they like
eating and what they do during the day.
The children named them
Lola and Lulu.
These kinds of experiences bring alive the topics
we cover and offer the children hands on experience of living
things.
