Today's provocation? I've brought the outside inside, to get us back outside.... Make sense?

Well, not all littles like the rain, sometimes it just takes a challenge and a reason to get out there and once we're out, there no stopping them 😁

Today we'll be trying to float our boats in the puddles thanks to all this rain we've been having. We'll be problem solving, thinking creatively, practicing lots of motor skills, boosting resilience, practicing social skills, language, maths and having fun playing!

What a couple of days! Cold, frosty mornings, ❄️ followed by sunshine and blue skies ☀️, then gorgeous pink and orange sunsets, all topped off with the Snow full moon 🌕

We're exploring cold weather and ice this week... that pesky Jack frost has frozen our numbers in blocks of ice, can the children get them out again?!
.. and we will also be out enjoying the sunshine!

We're taking part in this this year!

An amazing resource below from the RSPB on identifying common garden birds 🐦

It’s not long until the Big Garden Birdwatch 2023! Are you ready to cosy up with a cuppa and count your garden visitors?

"Aha! Oho! A trail in the snow!
Whose is this trail and and where does it go?"

Here at Twigs it seems we have rabbits and even possibly deer visiting us at night! Time to get a wildlife camera maybe? 🤔

Can some of the children be like the curious Gruffalo's Child and see what trails they can find in the snow?

Movie night here later with popcorn and hot chocolate for the afterschoolies ☕🍿

Then... that's me for the holidays! It's been such a privilege this year to look after so many lovely children and watch them grow in their self confidence and knowledge and abilities 🥰

Nadolig llawen a blwyddyn newydd dda I chi gyd! 🎅 I hope you all have a very happy, restful break!
