Jessica, from England, sent in this great idea for teaching the moon phases (and eating biscuits). Let’s take a look at it…

What did you do?

This is a yummy way to teach the different moon phrases. Simply split the Oreos in half and use the cream to create the different moon shapes over a month. Describing the process as you go.

We created the different moon shapes using a spoon so that we can share them out to eat them when done.

Do you have any other projects planned?

Our next theme is the world of dinosaurs! So there will be lots of activities both educational and sensory planned!

How are you finding being housebound so far?

I have found it a rollercoaster of emotions and have to take everyday as it comes. It isn’t easy but it provides lots of lovely family moments.

Do you have any tips for other parents?

Focus on your and your families mental health right now.
