I (i am a nursery manager) prompted this activity with Toddler staff who work with children aged 2-3 this week, A member of staff lined a lrg mixing bowl with cling film and filled it with dinosaurs, green trees, small wooden logs and stones. She tipped it out into a tidgy tub (when frozen) and added some warmer water......the toddlers loved it (some never left it!!) they enjoyed watching the ice melt and trying to chip the dinosaurs free with tools. "They just loved the ice experience"

We will be trying this as an artic experience with penguins, polar bears etc and glitter flakes.........i'm so excited!

If you haven't tried it - you should!!!!!!!!!
