International Day of Play ๐งธ
We are a setting that believes strongly in letting children organically learn through play.
This week, our wet days have resulted in a lot of structured activities and outdoor planning being postponed, cancelled or altered.
They have had great fun learning, not only things like colours, numbers, letters etc but fine motor skills, pencil grips, conflict resolution, compromise, role play, opinions, viewpoints, safety, boundaries, imagination and story building.
Its really important that while we give children the best foundation to spring off into life that we also remember these years are precious and short.
They are only children for a little while and play is a very important, solid foundation.

A gentle reminder for our early years - we do need suncream for the setting. We reapply this throughout the day, especially in peak times and after water play (thank you to all those that have provided this already).

No suncream lasts all day - sweating, washing hands, wiping faces, swimming, paddling pools, drying off with towels. It all removes this protection
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
For all our older, after school children please remember suncream and a hat!
