Raindrops - Chinese New Year

Class: Raindrops Preschool Year: 2019 - 2020

Raindrops have been celebrating Chinese New Year (the year of the Rat), they went to Rainford library to choose books around this topic.  The children thoroughly enjoyed their walk through the village!

During this week, our setting has been transformed in to a Chinese restaurant with activities related to Chinese New Year.

We have studied the story of Chinese New Year, the children have enjoyed re-enacting the story, exploring the sensory rice looking for Chinese artefacts.

The children have enjoyed hanging their wishes on the wishing tree which is one of the Chinese traditions we have looked at.

We have had an exciting week, we still have food tasting, instrument making (Bolang Gu) and dragon dancing to look forward to.
