The last few weeks have been full of learning, laughter, and getting everything ready for September. Alongside writing children's learning summaries and preparing for the new term, we've made the most of every opportunity to explore the world around us.
Our Forest Tuesdays have been full of adventure! We counted ducks, fed them, searched for wriggly worms and tiny snails, and discovered just how fascinating nature can be.
We looked after our friends, shared plenty of smiles, and, of course, spent lots of time running wild... because that's what children do best! Every chase, jump and race helped to develop our physical skills while creating happy memories.
We also enjoyed a special trip to the beach, where we built memories, collected seashells, enjoyed delicious ice cream, and had so much fun that some of us fell fast asleep on the train home! We did manage to lose our collection of shells somewhere along the way but that's just another adventure and a good excuse to find even more next time!
With just two weeks left before our summer break, we're looking forward to making even more wonderful memories, enjoying plenty of outdoor adventures, and finishing the term with lots of smiles and fun.

“Play is the highest form of research.” – Albert Einstein

What a busy and lovely week at Wise Childcare!

This week the children enjoyed lots of hands-on learning through play and exploration. The little helpers loved using the new cleaning brushes and toy hoover and did a fantastic job keeping the playroom tidy! Parents, feel free to encourage a little cleaning at home too — you may be pleasantly surprised by how helpful your little ones can be! 😄

We explored colourful sensory trays with water, shells, sea animals and pipettes, helping to develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and early language through words such as “smooth,” “cold” and “floating.”

The skeleton and loose parts tray was a big hit with the children. They used their imaginations to load skeletons onto trucks, count objects and create their own little stories and adventures.

Our youngest little one has settled in beautifully and is growing in confidence every day.

At Wise Childcare, I believe children learn best through curiosity, creativity and meaningful play experiences every day. 😊

I recently lost access to my account, but I’m happy to say I’m back! 😊

Over the last few weeks, we’ve been very busy and making the most of our time together. We’ve been exploring the outdoors, enjoying lots of lovely walks, and discovering new things along the way. We also visited the library and spent time at the 21-22 Art Centre, which the children really enjoyed.

All the children are progressing so well and learning something new every day.

Do your children enjoy messy play like this?

🎄✨ December has been a wonderfully busy and magical month here at Wise Childcare. The children have been fully immersed in the festive spirit, concentrating so carefully on creating their Christmas crafts and taking great pride in their beautiful work.

Alongside all the creativity, we also had lots of fun dancing to Christmas music, filling our days with laughter, joy, and festive cheer. 💃🎶

Now it’s time for a truly magical break, giving all of my children the chance to enjoy special, cosy moments with their families and create precious Christmas memories together. 💖

I would like to say a heartfelt thank you to all parents and families for your continued support throughout the year, for the kind words of encouragement, and for the lovely gestures of appreciation. I have honestly been so touched and very surprised by the number of Christmas gifts I received. Thank you so much, they truly meant a lot. 🎁✨

I will be back on 5th January. If anything comes up in the meantime, please email [email protected].

Wishing you all a magical Christmas and a Happy New Year filled with love, laughter, and joy. ✨🎄

The past few weeks have been wonderfully busy and so enjoyable! The children have been exploring, learning, and growing together through so many rich experiences.

We’ve spent time outdoors on our daily walks, listening to birdsong, collecting conkers and autumn leaves, and noticing the beautiful changes in nature. 🌳🍁

Our adventures have taken us to local parks, libraries, museums, and art centres, where the children have been curious, creative, and full of questions! We’ve also focused on learning about communication and community sharing ideas, listening to one another, and engaging in activities that help us work and play together. 💬🤝

It’s been such a joy watching the children learn through real experiences, connect with the world around them, and develop new friendships along the way. 💛

What a fantastic first week we’ve had! 🍂 We jumped straight into exploring nature collecting conkers, leaves and acorns to spark our curiosity. The children made the most beautiful collages from wildflowers, carefully using scissors to cut the flowers before sticking them down. We even took our drawing outdoors… some little artists couldn’t resist decorating themselves (and their friends too! 😅).

We tuned our ears to the world around us, spotting different birds and listening carefully to their songs. A real highlight was seeing swans and their fluffy cygnets gliding across the water, a magical moment of science and wonder.

Back indoors, we put our chef hats on and baked healthy biscuits, no chocolate this time! Instead, the children cut and squashed their own bananas, mixed oats and strawberry jam, and carefully poured their ingredients. Along the way, we used mathematical language, practised sharing skills, and took turns beautifully.

Our adventures didn’t stop there! We hopped on the bus to the library and art centre. The children were absolutely mesmerised by the lights exhibition, describing it with amazing words like “magical.” At the library, we explored books together, listened attentively to stories, and did some colouring (though Diana may have misplaced the masterpieces in the meantime! 🙈). The children shone with politeness and impeccable behaviour throughout.

All of these experiences have been hands-on and child-led, echoing Montessori’s belief that children learn best through real, meaningful activities. From cutting flowers to mixing ingredients, the children were developing independence and fine motor skills. At the same time, their curiosity and play connected beautifully with Piaget’s idea that children build knowledge through exploring, experimenting and making sense of the world around them.

This week alone, we’ve covered such a wide range of learning:
✂️ Fine motor skills with scissors and collage-making
🔢 Maths through measuring, mixing, and sharing
🔬 Science in nature walks and baking
💬 Language and literacy with books, songs, and new vocabulary
🤝 Social, personal and emotional skills through teamwork and turn-taking
🎨 Creativity and self-expression through art and imaginative play

It’s been a blast, a perfect mix of fun and deep learning. I’m so proud of everything the children have achieved already, and I can’t wait to see what adventures and discoveries next week will bring!

It’s a gentle way to bring the season indoors and spark curiosity, imagination, and conversations about the world around us.
