Our Nursery Rhyme Topic

We enjoyed learning about Humpty Dumpty. We looked at different eggs.

This big ostrich egg was our favourite!

We made our own Humpty Dumpty with a hen's egg. It was fun finding out how high we could build our wall before Humpty Dumpty broke. We know now why

"all the King's horses and all the King's men, couldn't put Humpty together again."

We couldn't do it either!!!

We enjoyed exploring Humpty Dumpty through play based learning.
