This week, the Dragonfly children embraced the cosy spirit of autumn by making a delicious warming soup. After carefully washing their hands, reinforcing hygiene practices, they prepared a hearty mix of seasonal vegetables including potatoes, carrots, onions, and celery. As they took turns chopping and blending, the children practised turn-taking and cooperation, while also developing fine motor skills through handling utensils and cutting ingredients. The activity encouraged sensory exploration as they tasted and smelled the soup, and supported language development through lively discussions about the ingredients and cooking process. The result? A nourishing soup that was as tasty as it was enriching.
