Sea Creatures Theme - OCTOPUS ON SEAWEED

Monday, 23rd September 2013.  An interesting and easy cookery class for the 4 years old in the theme 'Sea Creatures'.    They will never forget the octopus after this class.   All the cutting and cooking in this activity were carried out by the teacher.  
Make 8 cuts on the sausages.    Put the sausages into boiling water and the sausages will open up or curl  like a flower.  This will be the octopus.
Cooked sausages.  The 8 cuts on the sausages that curled or opened up represented the tentacles.
Cooked spaghetti , buy the green type for the sea weed.  
Counting the 'tentacles' . 
Take some sea weed.
Put some 'sea weed' into the container.
Put the 'octopus' on the 'sea weed'.
Here's my 'octopus' on the 'sea weed' to bring home to show to my mum!
'Octopus'  on the 'sea weed'.
Some of the learning outcomes are ~  vocabulary, maths, fine motor skills development (using the tongs), science, language and socio-emotional development ( listening, following instructions, taking turns) and many more.

Reminder :  Do not always give your children too much of sausages.
