🌟 Another fun-filled week at Childminding! 🌟

We’ve had a wonderful week full of adventures, learning, and lots of smiles! 😊❤️

🚶‍♀️ Monday We enjoyed a lovely walk and had lots of fun at the park 🌳🛝☀️

📚 Tuesday A trip to the library where we explored stories, books, and imagination 📖✨

🎈 Wednesday Soft play fun! Lots of climbing, sliding, and burning off energy 🤸‍♀️🛝😁

🧁 Thursday Baking day! The children loved mixing, stirring, and creating some tasty treats 👩‍🍳🍪🧁

🌳 Friday We finished the week with another exciting park day, enjoying the fresh air and outdoor play ☀️⚽🛝

It’s been a week full of laughter, friendships, learning, and happy memories 💕🥰

Have a lovely weekend everyone 🌈 ✨

🛒 New role play addition! 🛒

Our new market stall has arrived and the children are very excited to get playing! 🍎🥕 Role play is a great way to encourage imagination, communication and social skills while having lots of fun.

Now I just need to find someone to build it! 😂🔨👀

💛

This morning we had a proper splash walk around Waterworks Park 🌧️💦😂🌿 puddles everywhere and lots of giggles!

By the afternoon we swapped the rain for sunshine ☀️😎 and headed up to Cave Hill Country Park 🌳🦋🏞️ what a difference a few hours makes!

From soggy to sunny in true NI style 🌦️🤣💚☀️

One of our favourite things to do in childminding is visiting our local library 📚✨

We love exploring the children’s book room, choosing stories together, and enjoying the colouring activities they put out 🎨

It’s a calm, welcoming space that really helps encourage a love of books 📚 ❤️

🥹💛

First day back after 10 lovely days off on holidays ☀️🌴😎 It was so nice seeing all my little people again 🥹💛 and coming back to such beautiful sunny weather 🌞🌸✨

We headed out for our morning walk 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🌿 and a trip to the park 🛝🌳☀️💚 Lots of smiles, fresh air and happy little faces ✨

We took down the balloon arch from my daughter’s birthday today and honestly the excitement ✨ 🎈
Sometimes the simplest things bring the biggest joy 🫶🎈🌸🩵🌼🪻💕☁️🎀✨🌈🧸

A lovely morning at Waterworks 🌿💦

We put our walking legs on 👣 and headed around the top pond where apparently there were hippos 🦛 and crocodiles 🐊 hiding in the water 😂 The little ones’ imaginations were amazing ✨

Our special moment was spotting the baby geese 🪿💛 and finding the dummy tree 🌳🧚‍♀️… although nobody was too keen to hear it’s where you leave your dummies 😂

We finished with a trip to the park 🛝 and somehow avoided the rain ☔🙌

A morning full of fresh air, imaginative play, storytelling, language development, and lots of new vocabulary 🗣️

A beautiful Monday spent outdoors 🌿✨

We headed off for a big adventure walk around Cavehill 🏞️ even though the park was closed earlier, we didn’t let that stop us! 😊

We came back later after school with the bigger children and had the best time playing together, exploring and laughing in the fresh air 🌈🧒👧

I just love days like this nature walks and happy faces, so lucky to have Cavehill on our doorstep 💛🍃🌼

We had such a lovely little get together today with our childminding friends 💛

With some still off school, we made the most of it and headed to the Waterworks for a picnic. The kids had a brilliant time running around, playing, and enjoying the fresh air while we soaked up the smiles and laughter.

Days like this are what it’s all about ☀️🧺
