Write Dance

The nursery children really enjoyed their first Write Dance session on Friday.

Write dance is designed to improve gross and fine motor skills by building muscle which helps with writing. 

We listened to rain sounds and drew vertical lines


We then listened to traffic sounds and drew circles just like the wheels on a car.
