Pinecone Play

Good evening,

I've been thinking long and hard about this decision. Unfortunately, due to summer at my full time job, taking on a new role and just not having the time to prep, I won't be carrying on with my sensory mornings at Kinnerley.

I will still be running birthday parties and running sensory based play at Love2Stay, but I now work Sunday, Monday & Tuesday evenings. Due to hours being so late I can't prep and making everything as educational and messy as I'd like too.

I hope you all understand, and thank you for coming along, I've met some amazing people. Please watch this space for all the autumn woodland school activities.

Good Evening,

As most of you know Pine Cone play runs at Kinnerley every Monday 10am-12pm. I've been off the last 2 weeks with a house move and holiday. I was super excited to get back to it this week... But...

Early today at my full time work I decided to pick up an IKEA filing cabinet to move into my new office. Trying to be an independent female and all that jazz. The bottom decided to detach and from chest height I dropped it onto my foot.

I am hoping to be there tomorrow, but.. Here's the yucky part....they may have to drain my nail 😬 so if over night it continues to feel like a balloon I won't be driving tomorrow which means another week of no sensory messy mornings :(.

I'll let everyone know tomorrow at 8am wether I'll be there or not.

Who's joining me this Monday...... 🌿

⚠️ Important ⚠️

Unfortunately this Monday I have to move house. Its all very last minute, but it does mean I won't be able to run the sensory morning.

This is only a one off, I promise I'll be back 11th July. I'm sorry to let everyone down! I have to move at short notice. Huge apologies! 🌿

🌿🎈Happy Birthday to Henry! 🎈🌿

I got the pleasure of setting up Pinecone Play tuff trays today based around farms, tractors and diggers.

Birthday packages are available and we can tailor them to suit you :). Henry's had sand, water, soil, oats, rice, bark and even cereal!

Most resources you can see below can be recycled. The compost can be used for planting, as everything that gets mixed in is naturally based. The spaghetti is washed and fed to the chickens 🐔.

What a lovely afternoon! ☺️🌿

Looking fir something to do this Monday morning?

10am-12pm £5per child.

🌿 Monday 20th June 🌿

Some photos from today's sensory messy play session. It was too beautiful and sunny to be inside, so we took the mess outside instead!

The children had fun playing in the garden potions tuff tray and the safari tuff tray. We also enjoyed spaghetti, dyed rice and sand play. We painted with leafs and played in the sensory den.

Looking forward to more mess next Monday. If you want to come along just pop me a message. It's 10am-12pm at Kinnerley village hall and it's £5per child.

Feel free to bring a picnic for after as the weather looks promising. 🌿

🌿Recycling🌿

That's right, after spaghetti play today, I came back and washed all the paint off our spaghetti. It was lovely and clean so I fed it to the chickens. There was no point in binning it when I knew how much they love pasta!

"Cooked plain pasta or rice is a great source of carbohydrates for birds. Wash thoroughly to remove any oil or salt"
