Our first Science Experiment.... When liquid dish soap is added to milk with drops of food colouring on the surface, the soap reduces the surface tension of the milk and reacts with the fat. This interaction causes the fat particles in the full cream milk to move and create swirls of colour. . What is the science behind colour changing milk? The food colouring in the full cream milk bowl will move the fastest because the dish soap bonds, or holds tight, with the fat in the milk. This bond is so strong that the water and the food coloring are pushed out. . The children were very excited to see the pretty colours and swirls happening right before their eyes. . . #familydaycare #karensdayfamilydaycare #familydaycareqld #scienceweek2019 . #familydaycareaustralia #familydaycare #familydaycareqld #karensdaycare #playmatters #eylf #playislearning #letthemplay #earlychildhoodeducation #earlyyearslearning #earlychildhoodunplugged #playallday #themontessoritribe #daycare #wherelearningmeetsplay #earlylearning #playathome #intentionalteaching #homeeducator

LEGO blocks are a great manipulative toy to work with. The children love building with them but today we used them a little bit differently. I found these lego number templates online. The children are developing problem solving skills, patience, organisational skills and learning about numbers as they find the blocks to match to the template pictures. This activity also promotes fine motor skills, encourages team work, improves communication skills, develops persistence, improves language skills and encourages better focus and concentration levels. . . #familydaycareaustralia #familydaycare #familydaycareqld #karensdaycare #playmatters #eylf #playislearning #letthemplay #earlychildhoodeducation #earlyyearslearning #earlychildhoodunplugged #playallday #themontessoritribe #daycare #wherelearningmeetsplay #earlylearning #playathome #intentionalteaching #homeeducator #finemotorskills #grossmotorskills #sensoryplay #colours #manipulativetoys #lego #legoblocks

Fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination as well as colour recognition.... and cars are our favourite thing at the moment. . . #familydaycareaustralia #familydaycare #familydaycareqld #karensdaycare #playmatters #eylf #playislearning #letthemplay #earlychildhoodeducation #earlyyearslearning #earlychildhoodunplugged #playallday #themontessoritribe #daycare #wherelearningmeetsplay #earlylearning #stickerfun #finemotorskills #earlychildhood #learningathome

I made these block pictures awhile ago by tracing around the actual blocks. The children used their visual perception to find and match the blocks into the correct position on their chosen picture. . . #familydaycareaustralia #familydaycare #familydaycareqld #karensdaycare #playmatters #eylf #playislearning #letthemplay #earlychildhoodeducation #earlyyearslearning #earlychildhoodunplugged #playallday #themontessoritribe #daycare #wherelearningmeetsplay #earlylearning #playathome #intentionalteaching #homeeducator #finemotorskills #colours #shapes #blockplay

This morning the girls engaged with this Paddle Pop Stick matching game... . The children are increasing their visual perception skills as they work to copy the shapes and colours of the paddle pop sticks.....they are problem solving – how to make the shape look like the one in the picture... . LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES • Fine Motor Development–manipulating objects. • Hand-eye Coordination and Control • Concentration • Language development • Sorting by colour . The children choose the correct colours to match to the picture as well as identify the colour names. . 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 . #familydaycareaustralia #familydaycare #familydaycareqld #karensdaycare #playmatters #eylf #playislearning #letthemplay #earlychildhoodeducation #earlyyearslearning #earlychildhoodunplugged #playallday #themontessoritribe #daycare #wherelearningmeetsplay #earlylearning #playathome #intentionalteaching #homeeducator #finemotorskills #colours #shapes #paddlepopsticks
