EYFS - Bridges

Date: 3rd Jul 2024 @ 7:19pm

Today the children used the ramps and crates to make their very own bridge routes.

 

The children worked collaboratively to create the route but it took lots of trial and error to get the bridges to balance.  

 

They took it in turns to carefully move around the structure. They had to be careful not to fall in the water!
