BestStart Albany's love for water
At BestStart Albany, we appreciate the warmer days when we can embrace our love of water. There are so many different ways we can explore water play, and the benefits are endless.
Water is soothing and a great way for us to calm down when our days get busy or when we arrive and have to say goodbye to our parents. The soothing properties of water are a great way to help us to relax.
Today we explored bubbles added to our water; we were able to see the way they moved under our touch and how they flew through the air—providing us with endless fun and laughter. Outside of this, we were able to explore some basic mathematics and science. We did this by exploring full, empty, volume and velocity, as we explored pouring it into different size containers and poured it into water wheels.
We also were able to explore our social skills as we took turns and shared containers, waterwheels and other resources. The best thing was we were able to have a lot of fun whilst we learning.
