Messy Fun!

What a lot of messy fun we have had this today!

In our messy tray today we had cold cooked spaghetti, a mixture of runny paint and some paint brushes.  The children were then free to explore, some children tentatively approached (aprons on of course!) and picked up the paint brushes and painted circles on the tray, moving on to painting individual pieces of spaghetti! 

As the play continued the children became more and more confident to explore and started using their hands to mix the spaghetti with the colours and we even had some body painting towards the end!

The children were using some wonderful language as they played about what the spaghetti felt like, as well as describing the colours they could see and what happened to them as they mixed together!

Well done everyone! 

Tomorrow we are going to add in different shaped pasta and see what happens!
