1 down, 4 to go…

What a team 🙌🏼 5 on foot and another tucked up, fast asleep in the pushchair 🥰 today’s 2km passed in a flash.

We found fairy houses, fallen trees that looked like dragon heads, spiky leaves, soggy leaves and lots of puddles to jump in and the birds sang a lovely song for us to listen to 🎶

We have signed up to for THE BIG WINTER WANDER next week.

Each day we are aiming to walk 2km with the children to help raise much needed funds for the WWF whilst getting outdoors and enjoying the benefits that nature brings to us all.

🌈 DIY RAINBOW 🌈

This week we have spent some time talking about our emotions for Children’s Meental Health week.

One child felt that rainbows made them happy so we decided to make our own. We used torches to refract the light off the CD’s onto some white paper. How pretty do they look 👀 😍

Exploring our emotions 😃😔🤢🤪🥰😖😭😡😴

We had a lovely morning Mere Green Library for music and story time 🎵 📖

Thank you to all the parents who have sent books in, we’ve had lots to get through 📚
