Crafty Saturday

It is that time of the week when kids can kick off their shoes, not worry about school or home work and enjoy stories and craft at OBX.

This week the kids were read stories about Gingerbread man. Apart from the story, the kids also enjoyed sponge painting the Gingerbread man and making a story book for themselves.

Friday Fun @ OBX

What is it that you absolutely need to survive?


Apart from food to eat and air to breathe...yes you got that right...


So this week's theme for the Science project is the thirst quenching Water.


First, the kids put salt in the water. It disappeared. And they were wondering where did it all go? When Miss R suggested why not taste the water...they did and it was salty, it was so because the salt dissolved.

Then they went on to see what happens if they add sand to the water...what do you think? Oh, you are right it did sink and not dissolve

The kids observed how a few things dissolve in the water whereas a few others sink.
