Mud play is worth the mess!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re concerned that germs in mud might affect your child’s health, the Mayo Clinic confirms that playing in the mud can be healthy for your little one in more ways than one including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Healthier Immune System<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-the germs found in mud may help strengthen your child’s immune system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Gut Health<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-mud play may increase the diversity of friendly bacteria in the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Emotional Health & Creativity<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-mud play allows children to connect and interact with the natural world around them. It helps children develop tactile skills with sensory play, boost their creativity, imagination, independent learning and teamwork. It can also help develop construction, building, and problem-solving skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We started our line of inquiry 3, where we talked about “our actions can make a difference in conserving resources.” To start with, we first discussed what our natural resources are. We watched a video, and then we identified four common natural resources: sunlight, air, water, and wood. Our little ones also shared what actions they are going to take to conserve them, such as turning off the faucet, using rainwater to water the plants, using sunlight instead of artificial light, saving energy, and planting more trees. Well done!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week, we conducted a fire drill. In our class, we don’t make any announcements anymore to see how our youngsters will respond when an emergency happens. When the bell rang, everybody went under the table to keep themselves safe, but when they heard that it was a fire, they quickly went to their lockers to get their hats, covered their mouths with their handkerchiefs, and evacuated from the building. The drill went smoothly because of our young ones’ awareness when there’s an emergency. Great job, Rainforest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
