Didcot 5 fun run in July
Perpetual Childcare is the sponsor again this year

It’s that time again. Where we take to having a toddle around the community with your little ones.
We are planning on heading out this week in the cooler days, (unlike last year when it was the hottest day of the year) ☀️ if you have anything animal themed, dress them in that . (It’s not essential)

We will be doing animal themed activities with them.

Heat and children information

Dress children in light, loose clothing, (long sleeve and long trousers were possible)
Choose lightweight, light-colored fabrics that allow skin to breathe and reflect rather than absorb heat. Loose-fitting clothes create airflow around the body, helping children stay cooler. Wide-brimmed hats protect faces, ears, and necks from direct sun exposure—essential for preventing both sunburn and heat exhaustion.
