At BestStart Hokowhitu we have been having a lot of fun outside investigating the texture and pouring qualities of cornflour finger paint. It has been lovely to watch the expressions of surprise and delight as tamariki discover how cornflour finger paint can be both wet and dry at the same time! They experimented with questions such as, will adding more water change how the finger paint feels?and how much cornflour is needed to make it feel dry again? They tried predicting the outcome and reflected on what worked out and what was a surprise. Our tamariki are actively engaged in making sense of their world and having a lot of fun together while they do so! Tino pai!
