Always a fun day at Blossom Childminding!
Here’s a little collection of photos from the last couple of weeks. We’ve started to explore Autumn, following the children’s interests and using the changing season around us to spark curiosity, conversation and new ideas. 🍁

What a wonderful morning we’ve had at Arscott Farm!

We started our morning with some strawberry picking, searching carefully for the ripest strawberries. 🍓
The children quickly learnt that the really deep red ones were the ones we wanted, while the white ones were still growing and needed a little more time. They loved hunting through the plants to find the perfect ones!

Then it was time for sunflower picking! 🌻 There were so many different varieties to choose from, tiny ones, big ones, huge ones and even some with smiley faces! 😍 The children each chose their favourite sunflower to take home.

A morning full of fresh air, exploring, learning and plenty of smiles. 💛🌻🍓❤️

Today we had the loveliest day at Home Farm 🐷🐐🐑🐴💚

As well as getting to see and feed all of our favourite animals and having plenty of fun on the park (as we do every time we visit! 😍), we were extra lucky to meet Jake Evans Storyteller! 📚✨

Jake shared 5 different stories with us, making each one fun, interactive and full of imagination. The children absolutely loved joining in, listening and getting involved, and so did we! 🥰

A huge thank you to Jake for making our visit even more special. We absolutely loved it! ❤️📖

🌳✨ What a fantastic day celebrating our school leavers at Bewilderwood! 💚

We spent the day making amazing memories, exploring the mazes, racing down the slides, zooming along the zip wires, climbing, playing, watching the wonderful shows, and meeting lots of fantastic characters along the way.

Back at Blossom Childminding, we finished our celebrations with a special graduation ceremony, where our school leavers received their certificates, graduation photos and gifts before watching a lovely video full of memories from their time with us. 🎓💛

A perfect day celebrating a very special group of children. We are so proud of you all and wish you the very best for your next adventure! 🌸✨

🏅 What a wonderful Sports Day! 🏅

We are so incredibly proud of all of our amazing children! 💙

From our youngest babies to our school leavers, every child joined in with a smile, listened so well, tried their very best, and showed fantastic sportsmanship throughout the day.

We had lots of fun taking part in our running race, bean bag race, welly wanging, and egg & spoon race. The cheering, laughter, and encouragement made the day so special.

A big thank you to all of our wonderful families for coming along and supporting the children. We hope you enjoyed the day as much as we did!

Well done to every single one of our superstars – we’re so proud of you all! 🌟

☀️ Looking back at last week’s heatwave… ☀️

Although the temperatures were high, we still had a fantastic week together! We adapted our days to keep everyone safe and comfortable, with lots of water play, time in the paddling pool and plenty of outdoor fun in the shade under our event shelters.

The children kept hydrated throughout the day with regular drinks of water and enjoyed cooling down with a tasty ice lolly as a special treat.🍦
We also had our monthly drumming workshop, which was full of rhythm, energy and lots of smiles! 🥁

It was wonderful to see so many happy faces, lots of laughter and children making the most of the summer weather while staying cool and safe. 😊
