Finding lots of ways to document our thoughts......
Huge thanks to Seren for sharing her book with our blogging community. We love the book she made building on her keen interest in stories, and also drawing spirals or koru.

We've got quite a few children discussing their ideas about what a new baby in the family means! Here Hugo and Campbell show us how we might look after a baby in the ICT suite - where we popped in a digital clip and play props as a provocation to explore our wonderings some more....
