The great block experiment.

What a creatively busy morning. The children were very involved in sculpting, building and creating today. Whether they were working at the playdough table the easel or in the block area, there was a lot of problem solving, co-operation and team work to be seen. In the block area especially the children enjoyed building towers and then experimenting with different ways to knock or blow their towers down. Working together, we discovered that waving a book created a breeze, and the blocks would wobble back and forth slightly. We also discovered that by moving the block on the bottom of the tour, the whole tower would come crashing down. We had lots of fun building and experimenting.
