Dark Den

In Nursery, we have a new 'Knowledge and Understanding of the World' area which is proving to be very popular with the children.

 In our Dark Den, the children can explore the concept of colour and light.

We have enjoyed looking at some sources of light and through different coloured lenses.

We are exploring new vocabulary and have many new fiction and non-fiction books relating to this topic.

If you have any items at home that may enhance this experience for the children we would greatly appreciate it if we could borrow them. Maybe you have some torches or colourful flashing toys that you no longer need? Perhaps there is a story book or jigsaw at home that may fit?

We can either allow the children to use these items freely in the dark den or, alternatively, if it is something that is treasured or breakable, the children could look at them under the watchful supervision of an adult in nursery.

Thankyou in advance
