First I made 4 fresh batches of play dough with the children each with different colours of their choice and we added some essences to each colour dough as well for a added sensory experience.
Both the of the children were very keen to get creative with their new doughs and took their colours off to the table to play they both used the pots I Intended to store the dough in and pushed a circle print into the dough with it, this created our buns. I then gave then some new beads which we used as currants.
We sang the song together and acted it out too with our "currant buns" passing them to each other and taking turns with buying them as well.
The beads were a great addition to the Play dough as they allow the children to use every small movements to hold them, pick them up and push them in and out of the dough so if great for developing those pincer movements needed for writing.
