Of course, we couldn't help but imagine and create our own fanciful birds...
... And after some experimenting in their visual diaries, the children used black permanent marker pens and oil pastels to draw their bird onto card which they then stuck onto our very own Nickle Nackle Tree.
The children made up names for their birds such as the Fittle Fattle bird, a Rickle Rackle bird and a Hooty Whooty bird. This was a great art experience but also, a perfect opportunity for using descriptive language and playing with words.
