Little Monkeys Childminding

✨ Firework fun at Little Monkeys! 🎆💥
Our little artists have been busy creating firework crafts, painting dazzling displays, and even making their own edible sparklers! 🍫🎨

Through this activity the children explored:
🖌️ Expressive Arts & Design – developing creativity, experimenting with colour, texture, and design.
🧠 Communication & Language – talking about fireworks, sounds, and colours, building vocabulary.
🤝 Personal, Social & Emotional Development – sharing materials, taking turns, and celebrating together.
👋 Physical Development – strengthening fine motor skills through painting, sprinkling, and crafting.

A sparkly mix of creativity, colour, and giggles! 💛🎇

This month we’ve been learning about different life cycles, we looked at the life cycle of chickens. The children used different methods to create each stage of the chicken. They drew around a circle to make the egg, used sponges to stamp for the chick, glued on eyes and beaks, cut the string for the nest and hand prints for the chicken.

Happy Father’s Day for last week to all the Daddies. The children had lots of fun decorating their plaques and making a card for their Daddy or special grown up🥰

Some helpful information for all parents to look into, the Tax Free Childcare and other benefits you could be entitled to, to help with childcare fees

So what do you do when you’ve got too much bread left over..? Make some exciting toast and paint it of course!!! (the ‘paint’ is milk and food colouring so safe to eat)

This month is all about me, we were looking at our skeletons and x-rays. The children painted some people that then showed their bones, then they made their own hand x-rays.
