Humpty Dumptys Kindergarden

Humpty Dumptys Kindergarden Humpty Dumpty’s Kindergarden opened in July 2011. Fields and woodlands surround the Nursery and a long gravel driveway separates it from the road.

Accommodated in the village of Taverham, the Nursery is close to local amenities such as Taverham Garden centre, Taverham Library, the veterinary surgery and local primary schools such as Nightingales, Ghost Hill and Drayton Community Infant School. There is a large car park to enable easy drop off and pick up times for parents and carers.

A huge congratulations to our Sophie, who has successfully completed the Norfolk County Council Baby Friendly Project – Infants in the EYFS and achieved the NCC Baby Friendly Project Quality Award for our setting 👶🏆

This specialist training focuses on providing the very best experiences for babies and young children, promoting secure attachments, emotional wellbeing, responsive caregiving and high-quality infant practice.

For us, professional development isn’t simply about gaining certificates—it’s about continually reflecting on our practice, learning new approaches and ensuring every child receives the nurturing, responsive care they deserve.

We are incredibly proud of you, Sophie. Thank you for your dedication, passion and commitment to giving our youngest children the very best start in life. 🌈💚

Today marks 15 years of Humpty Dumpty’s Kindergarden 💚

When we first opened our doors on 18th July 2011, we could never have imagined just how many wonderful children and families would become part of our story.

Over the years, we have had the privilege of watching little ones take their first steps, find their voices, build friendships, grow in confidence and get ready for their next big adventure. We have shared cuddles, laughter, milestones, challenges, celebrations and so many precious everyday moments along the way.

To every family who has trusted us with their child, whether years ago or today, thank you. That trust has never been taken lightly.

To every child who has filled our nursery with joy, curiosity and personality, thank you for making Humpty Dumpty’s such a special place.

And to every member of staff, past and present, who has cared, nurtured, supported and helped shape our nursery over the years, thank you for being part of the journey.

Humpty Dumpty’s has always been about more than childcare. It is about creating a warm, safe and nurturing place where children feel known, valued and loved, and where families feel supported.

We are incredibly proud of the last 15 years and so grateful to everyone who has grown with us.

Here’s to the memories already made and the many more still to come.

Happy 15th birthday, Humpty Dumpty’s Kindergarden. 🥳💚

Growing together since 2011.

🐛 Caterpillars (Baby Room) 🐛

We’re excited to share a lovely creative activity happening in our Caterpillars room! 💛

Our children are currently exploring their personal, social, and emotional development by making their very own sensory bottles. These special bottles are designed to help them feel calm, safe, and connected.

To make them even more meaningful, we’d love to include photos that are special to your child—this could be family members, pets, or anything that brings them comfort and happiness. 🏡🐾

You can support us in whichever way is easiest for you:
✨ We can provide a bottle for you to take home and decorate together
✨ Email your photos to us at [email protected]
✨ Upload photos via Ovivio (Blossom)

These personal touches will make such a difference and help create something truly special for your child. 💫

Thank you so much for your continued support—we can’t wait to see the children enjoying this activity!

Humpty Dumpty Supports Autism Awareness!

On Thursday 2nd April, Humpty Dumpty is helping support Autism Awareness Day and we’d love everyone to join in! We’re asking if you can bring your child in wearing blue to show support and help spread awareness.

It’s a simple way to get involved and talk to children about being kind, understanding, and celebrating everyone’s differences.

Thank you for helping us support such an important cause 💙

What a flipping flippin’ fabulous Pancake Day we had in baby room! 🥞✨

Our Caterpillars celebrated this yummy occasion by diving straight into a wonderfully sensory adventure inspired by everyone’s favourite treat – pancakes! 😋💛

Our tray was filled with gloopy, stretchy oobleck that seemed to have a mind of its own. One minute it was runny and drippy… the next it turned solid in their tiny hands! 🤭 Our little ones were completely mesmerised as they scooped, stirred, squashed and splashed using spoons, whisks and even real lemons. It was busy, buzzy and beautifully messy! 🥣

And then came the lemons… 🍋

Oh my goodness! A few brave little ones had a tiny taste and WOW — the sour surprise brought out the most amazing funny faces! 😆 We saw squinty eyes, puckered lips and lots of laughter as they reacted to the zingy flavour. 🍋⚡️

This sensory celebration supported the EYFS framework in so many exciting ways:

🌟Communication and Language – We introduced fun new words like mix, squash, gloopy, sticky and sour.

🌟Physical Development – All that scooping, squeezing and stirring strengthened little fingers and supported hand–eye coordination.

🌟Personal, Social and Emotional Development – Exploring new textures and tastes built confidence, curiosity and resilience in a safe, nurturing environment.

🌟Understanding the World – Watching the oobleck change from liquid to solid sparked early scientific thinking as the babies investigated cause and effect through hands-on exploration.

What a wonderfully messy, magical morning full of learning, laughter and lemony surprises! 🥞🍋

🌈✨ Children’s Mental Health Week ✨🌈

This week at Humpty Dumpty’s we’ve been busy exploring ways to understand our feelings, find calm, and look after our wellbeing 💚

🐛 Caterpillars discovered the magic of sensory bags — squishing, sliding and exploring textures to help regulate big emotions and find a moment of calm.

🐞 Ladybirds enjoyed a soothing self-care water tray, complete with gentle play, relaxation time, and even mini face masks! A lovely way to explore self-care and mindfulness through play.

🦋 Butterflies took their wellbeing into the woods! On a peaceful nature walk, they collected sticks and natural treasures to create their very own worry dolls — a beautiful way to talk about feelings and let go of worries.

Through these experiences, the children have been learning how to recognise emotions, develop calming strategies, and understand the importance of looking after their mental health.

These activities link closely to the EYFS framework:
💬 Personal, Social and Emotional Development – managing feelings and behaviour
🌿 Understanding the World – exploring nature and environments
🎨 Expressive Arts and Design – creativity to express thoughts and feelings

This week in the Baby Room, our little ones enjoyed a magical celebration of National Story Week through lots of sensory, messy and hands-on experiences inspired by much-loved traditional tales. 📚✨

Our babies didn’t just listen to stories… they lived them!

We huffed and puffed our way through The Three Little Pigs as the babies built houses with wooden blocks and different materials for example lollipop sticks and spaghetti. They squealed with delight as they knocked them down again and again! 🐷

Then came the wonderfully messy fun of Goldilocks and the Three Bears! Bowls, spoons and porridge everywhere as little hands scooped, mixed, patted and squished. The babies loved feeling the different textures while hearing familiar story words and joining in with the experience through their senses. 🐻🥣

All of these amazing experiences supported key areas of the EYFS:

🌟 Communication & Language – listening to story words and engaging with familiar tales
🌟 Physical Development – building, grasping, scooping and exploring textures and objects
🌟 Personal, Social & Emotional Development – exploring confidently alongside others
🌟 Literacy – building an early love of stories and books
🌟 Mathematics – exploring size through big and small bowls, spoons and furniture
🌟 Understanding the World – investigating materials, textures and objects through sensory and small world play
🌟 Expressive Arts & Design – sensory exploration and early imaginative play

What a wonderful week of laughter, learning, storytelling and gloriously messy fun in Caterpillars!🐛👶🏻

❄️✨ Snow Day Magic — Learning Through Winter Wonder! ✨❄️

This week the caterpillars had the most magical experience — adventuring out in the snow! With cosy suits, warm hats, and curious smiles, they explored the crisp, sparkling world around them. Little hands reached out to touch the fluffy snow, tiny boots crunched across the ground, and joyful giggles filled the air as snowflakes landed softly on their cheeks. ☃️

This wasn’t just a fun winter experience — it was a rich learning opportunity, closely linked to the principles of Birth to 5 Matters.

🌟 Sensory Exploration & Curiosity
Babies explored new textures, temperatures, and sounds — developing their early understanding of the world through hands-on discovery.

🌟 Physical Development
Moving across snowy ground encouraged balance, coordination, and gross motor skills as babies crawled, toddled, and stepped through new terrain — strengthening their confidence as active learners.

🌟 Communication & Language
We used rich vocabulary such as cold, snowy, crunchy, soft, and sparkly. Practitioners modelled language through conversation, singing winter songs, and responding to babies’ gestures and sounds.

🌟 Personal, Social & Emotional Development
Shared smiles, reassurance, and gentle encouragement supported secure relationships and emotional wellbeing — helping babies feel safe to explore and try new experiences.

The snow may melt… but the memories — and learning — will last much longer. ❄️🤍
