Chinese New Year


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hi we are looking at the country of China over the whole of this half-term.

We have cooked vegetable noodle soup, have a display table with artefacts, books, money wallets, pictures and posters of the animals that live there, crops that are grown, tasting at our snack table, singing a Happy New year Chinese song with actions, Dragon dancing, role play with noodles, chopsticks, chinese clothing, reading the Cleversticks story, chinese music. Next week we are going to be looking at Pandas, making our role-play area into a natural habitat for them with bamboo. We are also going to draw around the children and make the Terracotta Warriors using a mix of flour, water and paint. We will also look at our world maps.

We are really lucky to have a daddy from China at our setting, who also brings in an amazing green tea cake and dim sum and fortune cookies.

Hope this helps.

Wonder if someone would check this for me please? Last year I bought Chinese play money and lovely red envelopes to put it in. Still have them because as I was about to put the money in I noticed it was issued by the, 'Band of HELL!'. Felt a bit uneasy about handing that out to all and sundry.

 

Should I just chuck 'em? Or would you use them and be damned to the Bank of HELL?

 

Actually, think I'll just pop some chocolate coins in the nice envelope, but there's a cautionary tale in there somewhere.

Could you use a permanent marker to obliterate the words?
