“This promotes and enhances their understanding of the world and what’s going on in their local community.
“We discovered many sounds which we talked about, which has been great for expanding children’s language.
“We heard a range of sounds from transport, to animals, ice and grit, talking, pedestrian crossings and the shuffling of our feet.”

The group will then move on to explore the senses of touch, taste and smell through visits to a range of local shops.
“We are excited to carry on and ensure all of our outings are as exciting and fun as this one has been for all the children,” added Mrs Jacklin.
Market Rasen Pre School is in the town’s Kilnwell Road.
