08.01.2022 MUMS & BUBS FRIDAY 12PM-2PM AT NGURRA HUB This week our Mums & Bubs will be having a fab time with our Little Diggers session!... Gardening provides the perfect combination of skills and tasks to address your childs development. Young children can practice locomotor skills, body management skills and object control skills while they move from one place to the other carrying tools, soil and water. Fine motor skills such as whole-hand grasping and the pincer grasp (necessary skills for writing) are employed in gardening when children use a trowel or rake and pick up tiny seeds to plant. Another aspect of physical development is the sensory stimulation that you can experience in a garden. Water is a critical part of gardening and, if your child enjoys nothing else, playing with the hose or the watering can be a highlight. Feeling the texture of the soil or the plant leaves is also interesting, as is the smell of the fresh garden and its plants. PLEASE BRING A HAT FOR YOUR LITTLE ONE! Lunch and snacks provided. To book in, please call 0466 491 431 or PM the page! See you all tomorrow!

07.01.2022 What beautiful weather we have been having!! If tomorrow is as good as today, we will venture outside with the little ones! See you all tomorrow! Mums & Bubs 12pm-2pm tomorrow!
