Sensory Stories

♥️ BABY NEWS! ♥️

For those of you who have been asking we welcomed a baby girl into the world at the weekend. We're busy enjoying lots of lovely newborn cuddles and adjusting to life as a family of 5 eek! Looking forward to seeing lots of you again next year. I hope you all have a lovely Christmas 🎅

What better way to end the term than with fancy dress, magic and cake! This week we followed a kind witch and her friends on an adventure where they met a fire breathing dragon 🔥 The children explored a witch's brew gloop, a lentils sensory tray and a sensory frog pond.

This has been such an amazing year for me, turning the idea of Sensory Stories into a reality. It has been such a privilege to meet so many lovely mums, dads, grandparents and carers and to watch your little ones develop each term. I would like to thank everyone who has supported me in developing Sensory Stories into what it is today.

We took a dive into the deep blue sea for our story this week 🌈🐠 The children explored (and consumed 😂) a fish jelly dig with spaghetti seaweed as well as an under the sea sensory tent and rainbow tray.

Looking forward to an extra special session next week 🎉

We had a lovely time at Sensory Stories today, tasting juicy oranges, painting butterflies with edible paints and exploring caterpillar and butterfly shaped pasta 🐛🦋

Our story this week took us to a farmyard with some very noisy animals and a quiet little ladybird 🐞 The babies and toddlers explored a sensory duck pond, a shredded wheat farmyard and a very messy muddy pig sty 🐖

We met lots of cheeky animals at Sensory Stories this week! The babies and toddlers explored a variety of instruments and citrus fruit water play as well as tasting some juicy pineapple 🍍

It's a new term at Sensory Stories! I thoroughly enjoyed welcoming lots of you back to the classes today, it's amazing how much some of the children have changed over the summer 🥰 it was lovely to meet lots of new faces too.

Our story this week took us into the woods where we searched under a parachute to help the baby owls find their mother 🦉

The babies and toddlers enjoyed making playdough bird nests as well as exploring bird seed and a sensory nest.

We read Jack and the Beanstalk this week. The babies and toddlers delved into the edible paints and compared their footprints to the giant's. They also enjoyed diving into the castle in the clouds ball pit and exploring a golden sensory tray.

There aren't any classes next week. For those of you booked on to the September term we will be starting back on Friday 9th September. I can't wait to see you all then 😁

We are ‼️FULLY BOOKED‼️ for the September term across all three classes 🥳

Looking forward to seeing lots of familiar faces and meeting several new ones too.

If you're attending the Jack and the Beanstalk summer special on Friday we will have the edible paints out so come prepared!!

🐷🐺 We met a big bad wolf at Sensory Stories this week and huffed and puffed along with the story using our parachute. The babies and toddlers explored different ways to make houses using shredded paper straw, all bran and breadstick sticks (although most of these were consumed 😅) and a variety of bricks.

The babies and toddlers certainly got stuck into the messy play this week! I think Goldilocks wins the prize for the messiest class so far🏆 hence me only managing to take two photos 😅

Along with some very messy porridge play the children also explored a sensory soft/hard tray and lots of big, middle-sized and small objects 🐻

Looking forward to cooler temperatures next week and another SOLD OUT session as we explore The Three Little Pigs story. There are currently 3 spaces remaining on Friday 26th when we will be visiting the world of Jack and the Beanstalk. Booking for the Autumn term is also open if you would like to join us.
