• Looking forward to being 4 years old.
• Going on a shape walk to see how many different shapes you can discover.
• Sorting the clothes into different sizes for the big and small dolls

• Counting the plates needed in the café
• Going on a number hunt in the nursery garden
• Begin to use simple addition and subtraction in practical activities such as games or number songs/rhymes
