This week in the Oakwood House baby room we have been enjoying exploring water play.
We encouraged our babies to use their gross motor skills to stand at the tray, reach across for resources and navigate them through the water. We modelled language throughout our play through naming different sea creatures and other items in the water, the babies did a super job of demonstrating their verbal communication by copying these words - especially 'bubble'! The babies extended this water play further by using the resources to build towers, knocking them down and watching as this created a big splash!!
