Nursery were very excited to have their first campfire in the outdoor fire pit. The children sat on seats around the purpose build fit pit as the fire was lit and then they were able to toast their own marshmallows. They were all very sensible and were able to explain how we keep ourselves safe around fire. The children were encouraged to feel their marshmallows before and after toasting and noticed how they were very sticky and had changed colour after placing them on the fire. After toasting our gooey treats we sang a variety of camp songs before the children were encouraged to sit still and listen to the crackling fire.
The children took great pleasure watching Mrs King disappear in a puff of smoke as we made sure the fire was safely put out at the end.
A great experience was had by all and we are looking forward to more campfire cooking soon!
