Magic Sponge is an activity that helps children to develop their fine motor skills. It's an activity, which involves water and sponge. They dip a sponge in a tub with little water, it's amazing for children to see the water disappear and then when they squeeze the sponge the water drips back in the tub. Squeezing the sponge helps the children develop their finger muscles. An all time favourite activity of all children.

First Science concept that was introduced to the children was the concept of Sink and Float. Children sat around a water tub where they put objects like stones, wood, balls and straws in the tub. Objects which were heavy went down and light objects stayed up. Hence heavy objects sink and light objects float. Through this activity children were not only exposed to new vocabulary words like heavy and light, up and down and sink and float but also to the concept of opposites.

On 21 of December we at Daffodils KIDZEE celebrated Christmas. Theme for the party was Red and white. To live up to the spirit of Christmas, we invited under privileged children to show case their talent of singing Christmas Carols.
Hats off to these children. They put up a mind-blowing performance of carol singing and dancing. Our young kidzeeits cheered and clapped all through to show their appreciation.
Soon singing and dancing with Santa around the ornamented Christmas tree followed. Santa as always was in the mood to spread smile and laughter. He did this by showering gifts and chocolate on children.

Saturday 11th December KIDZEE was bustling with excitement. Young Kidzeeits were assembling in School for their space adventure. Yellow bus, which was no less, then a space ship darted towards Planetarium with 40 children on board precisely at 930 am. On route Children sang rhymes and played memory games. On reaching the Planetarium children were guided in by Guide Uncle Mr. Jatin he took the children on a tour where children saw all the nine Planets in 3D. Children learnt about Sun, Moon, Earth, Mars, Pluto, Jupiter, Venus and Uranus. Sitting under a dome with the solar system moving over our heads was an experience to remember.
On return we stopped at the Worli Sea Face where the children ate the snacks they had carried. Children’s 2010 Space odyssey come to an end when we returned to School at 1 pm.
