We placed balls in the middle and the children then shook the parachute. They really enjoyed hiding under the parachute \u2013 screeching, laughing and shrieking throughout. Some of the boys then decided to hide and crawl under before walking underneath all the colours. Finally, they got very tired and decided to have a nap on the parachute. Some of the parents thought the parachute was a great idea.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.crawfordchildcare.ie\/services-creche-montessori.php#montessori\">Discovery Room<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Some children showed an interest in Jack &amp; the Beanstalk so we got out the book.

Some children dipped their hands in the paint and use them to create flowers on the shed. Cian, Charlie and Samuel showed their Dads the shed and explained all about the plants and\u00a0 painting. The Dads were very impressed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Exploring Room As Laura was folding away the sheets and blankets out of the laundry basket Cillian and Jacob had other ideas!
