Playing in puddles is not only a lot of fun, it is a great sensory and physical learning experience for children.
Today we couldn't resist with all the rain we have had and a playground with lots of different sized puddles. We explored how it feels to be soggy from for the water, the size and depth of the puddles, we listened to the splashing and squelching sounds and the water made and inevitably our feet in our boots.
Playing in puddles is a great workout we jumped and hopped looking at the circles we made, we shuffled our feet through talking why it was hard work and we had to run. The most fun of all had to from kicking the puddles and soaking Mrs Ronson!
After all our fun in the rain and puddles it was time for changing all our clothes a nice warm drink and perhaps best of all for our parents all that activity everyone had a good nights sleep.
