Big Buzz set up this tuff tray, to teach Baby Buzz all about the colour green.
Resources
- Tuff tray
- Space blanket
- Green toys and household objects
Method
I have tried explaining that Buzz Aldrin didn’t wear this outfit for the moon landing, but Finn wanted them to wear it anyway.
Cian enjoyed playing with the circus scarves.
Finn decided to teach Cian about the colour green.
Then he decided they should build a tower.
Baby Buzz stayed in the Command Module with Michael Collins, while Big Buzz wore himself out bouncing round the room with Neil Armstrong.
