We had a wonderful day raising awareness and extra funds for plunket.  Our tamariki participated in a teddy bear’s picnic with a special visitor, we also had all sorts of art activities involving blue.

Our tamariki participated in making teddy bear cookies last week, they helped to bake them and they then got the chance to decorate their own cookie with blue icing, sprinkles and M&Ms.

By the tamariki helping to bake they can experience a wide range of skills. This can be seen through all aspects like, cracking eggs, measuring ingredients, and developing patience through turn taking. Baking and decorating can also help children feel a sense of empowerment in what they are doing.
