So Much Excitement at Children 1st @ Buckinghams
The sea snail slithered all over the rock
And gazed at the sea and the ships in the dock.
And as she gazed she sniffed and sighed.
“The sea is deep and the world is wide!
How I long to sail,”
Said the tiny snail.
With the help of a whale, the snail’s wishes come true and together they visit many wonderful places in the world.
The Peter Rabbits’ loved sharing the beautiful story of ‘The Snail and the Whale’ by Julia Donaldson and Alex Scheffler. They were particularly interested in the volcano they spied on one of the islands.
We built on their interest by creating our own volcano and, as their faces show, the children were so excited to take part in this science activity and watch as the volcano erupted.
