Recipes, Scavenger Hunts and Lego Challenges

Kia Ora Room 19 Children, Parents and Whanau,

I hope you are all well, safe and enjoying this special time at home with your loved ones. I definitely miss seeing all your wonderful happy and beautiful smiling faces, so please do not forget to send me some pictures/videos of you, your family and your learning/fun activities that are keeping you occupied. I have received wonderful pictures from two students already, so I will be making a post soon to share with you all. I would love you all to be a part of it.

As promised yesterday here are some fun and safe recipes you can create at home to make play dough, paint, slime and blocks. The reason I decided to send the non-toxic edible recipes for these resources is because some of you have brothers, sisters and pets at home that might be tempted to put these things in their mouth. I won't everyone to be 100% safe, as I know your parents do too.

NB: If the recipe calls for something you don't have at home, please use google to see if there is an alternate item you can use - for example if you don't have glue at home, you can make it with flour and water.  Google the recipe if you need it. :)

Below you will find the recipes for the paints, slime, play dough and blocks









Here is the 30 day Lego challenge:


Here is the indoor and outdoor scavenger hunt:


As a bonus idea for drawing (to follow on from yesterday's drawing blog) check this idea out:


The great thing about this type of drawing is that you can use anything as your template: Cars, animals, toys, food - the only limit is your own imagination and exploration skills. Give it a go, and share with me your results!

I hope these ideas help alleviate the boredom and give you ideas for being in your backyard getting fresh air and fun.

Just us for our next blog where I will be talking about fun Mathematics activities and Matific.

Sending you big virtual hugs from me (Mrs Futcher) and my family to you and your family. Keep well and safe creating wonderful memories with your family.
