This week has been one crazy week back to work. Weve had lots of new changes due to changed rules with Ofsted. This includes babies sleeping in a travel cot and toddlers now on a mat. There is no more screen time allowed, so we have had childrens radio playing on Alexa. However, we will still use screen time sometimes when using it for learning i.e. chinese new year to watch the dragin dances, bonfire night to watch the fireworks for childreb who are scared of the loud bangs, Danny Go for mini pe sessions, to watch movie like The Gruffalo etc when we have read the book. I have also created a new food menu. This is up on the window for parents to see. Tuesdays Curry and rice didnt go dowb very well so i will be changing that to something else. Any suggestions will be welcome. I will also put the menu on here once i have a photo of it.

Today we have had a lovely day with the little bit of sun weve had this week. We went for a little walk to get some fresh air. On our walk we visited the park where we collected some conkers ready for some Autumn activities next week. We then came back and the childreb enjoyed jacket potatoe with cheese and beans for their dinner. Yummy.

Looking forward to getting back into a proper routine next week and i am back doing school runs so please ensure children have the correct outdoor clothes for the weather.

Thankyou. See you next week.

Today has been a great day. The children played on the field with their other friends from other childminders. They had no toys but simply played a great game of 'Duck Duck Goose'. All children (even the younger ones) joined in amd there were lots of laughs and giggles. This afternoon we then did some glueing and sticking, making fish and tortoises for part of our summer theme.

Morning in the park, afternoon in the garden. The kids love being outside.

Today weve been looking at mini beasts. The children have had fun playing with them all, also creating their own butterfly sun catcher, colouring in their mini beast pictures and looking at how much our caterpillars have grown.
