Play idea: Messy play - Korihori pōrehe

Barnardos Home-Based Early Learning - Upper Hutt

There are many benefits to children having the opportunity to experiment with messy play. The link below explains the learning benefits of messy play, how adults can help during these activities and some recipes for gloop, finger paint and slime.

I would love to hear your feedback or see your pictures if you give any of these recipes a go at home. If you have any other ideas for messy play I would love to hear them too.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
