Acorns in Eldwick Private Day Nursery

🌈✨ Our Preschoolers have had a wonderful month of learning through play! From underwater sensory adventures 🐠 and exploring our veggie patch 🌱 to rainbow creations 🌈 and caring for baby dolls 🛁💕, every activity has encouraged creativity, curiosity and imagination.

We love watching our little learners grow through hands on fun every day! 💛

Our Preschool children have been learning all about the Earth and how we can help to save our planet 🌍💚

Through a variety of engaging messy trays and hands-on activities, the children have been exploring different textures and materials, helping to promote their sensory development and fine motor skills. From scooping, pouring, sorting, and digging, each activity encourages curiosity and independence while strengthening little hands.

The children have also enjoyed learning about animals and their environments, developing their social and communication skills as they talked with their peers about where animals live and how we can protect their habitats. 🐢🐘🐋

We are so proud of how engaged and thoughtful the children have been while learning about caring for our world. 🌱

The toddlers had the best time doing our Easter activities this week! 🐣💛

From saving the taped eggs and feeding the bunny lots of crunchy carrots 🥕, to getting creative with Easter playdough and exploring our spring textures tray 🌸 there was so much fun and learning all around!

They loved scooping and playing with the shaving foam eggs… messy play at its finest! 😄✨

Happy Mother's Day to all 🌸🩷

Our toddler room has had a lovely February celebrating the month of love! 💕

The children enjoyed lots of hands-on, sensory fun — from heart paintings 🎨 and squishy shaving foam hearts, to exploring our Valentine’s sensory tray filled with ribbons, pom poms and heart shapes 💌✨.

We had great fun flipping number pancakes 🥞🔢 as we counted together, building early maths skills through play.

Outdoors, the toddlers worked as a team at our muddy car wash 🚗🫧 and explored the sensory Bear Hunt from snowy storms ❄️ to deep, dark forests 🌳 🐻

Our Pre-Schoolers had a fantastic time celebrating Pancake Day! 🥞✨

The children loved choosing and adding their very own toppings to their pancakes all by themselves 🍓🍌🍫🍋 They did such a great job spreading, sprinkling and making their tasty creations just the way they like them! 😊

A big thank you to Zou, our lovely pancake maker, who did her magic making all the delicious pancakes for us 🥞💛✨ The children were so excited to watch them being made!

We then enjoyed a lovely little picnic at our tables with our friends 🧺💛 Lots of chatting, laughing and big smiles all around as we shared our special treat together 🥰

Today the babies have been busy exploring Pancake Day and Chinese New Year! 🥞🧧✨

We explored the pancake playdough, feeling the different textures with our hands 👶👐, and enjoyed smelling and tasting the fresh oranges and lemons 🍊🍋 lots of curious little faces! 😍

The babies made their own Pancake Day crafts too 🎨🥞 We painted our paper plates bright yellow and stuck on lots of yummy “fruit toppings” to decorate them 🍓🫐🍌 Such creative little artists! 👩‍🎨👨‍🎨

To celebrate Chinese New Year, we painted our own beautiful lanterns 🏮❤️ and had lots of messy fun exploring the gloop 🤲✨ We also looked at the horses as it is the Year of the Horse 🐴🎉

What a fun-filled, sensory day of learning and creativity! 💛
