Our social media channels feature a variety of information from our services and p

artners, keeping you informed and up to date with what's happening across Fife. We're here to help in any way that we can, and we will always aim to be supportive and respectful in our posts and any comments we respond to. We expect the same of all those contributing to our page. We want our social media channels to be safe, healthy, and open places for discussion and the exchange of views and we have the following house rules to help support that.

- All users must comply with the social media platform's terms of use as well as our own terms of use
- We answer enquiries/messages as soon as possible within working hours
- We will remove, in whole or in part, posts that we feel are inappropriate – for example bullying or harassment - or discriminatory against any individual or group
- You are wholly responsible for any content you post including content you choose to share

We will remove messages (where function allows) and report and/or block users on our social media channels who post messages at us which we believe are:

- abusive or obscene
- deceptive or misleading
- in violation of any intellectual property rights, including copyright
- in violation of any law or regulation
- spam and off-topic content (persistent negative and/or abusive posts in which the aim is to provoke a response)
- promotional material, including links to external websites and promotions

Anyone repeatedly engaging with us using content or language which falls into the above categories will be blocked and/or reported to the associated social media platform. We will not tolerate or respond to abusive messages. We must always remain politically neutral on social media which is why council officers are unable to reply to, endorse or engage with, any content that is of a party political nature. Political issues can be discussed with local councillors.

From the very beginning, babies feel love through small, everyday moments that build trust and connection.

These quiet interactions matter more than we often realise; they’re the foundation for how children understand relationships, safety and belonging.

At Peep, we support these early connections - because they shape what comes next.

Does your child love posting things into boxes, tubes, or any little space they can find?

This is part of a posting schema, a type of repeated play that helps children learn about size, shape, and cause‑and‑effect.

Try this fun activity to encourage their curiosity!

It’s Global Recycling Day 🌍

This year’s theme, 'Don’t Think Waste - Think Opportunity', is a great reminder that the things we might usually throw away can have a second life through play.

At Peep, we’re always encouraging families to make the most of everyday items: cardboard boxes, yoghurt pots, egg cartons, toilet roll tubes - all simple things that can be used in play in very simple ways.

You don’t need expensive toys to create meaningful play moments.

If you’d like a few easy ideas to try at home, have a look at our blog:

POV: You thought play was a break from learning…then realised it’s how children learn.

Once you start noticing what children are learning through play, you can’t unsee it.

That game of pretending?
Language and imagination.

Building and rebuilding the same tower?
Persistence and problem-solving.

Negotiating whose turn it is?
Relationships and self-regulation.

What looks like “just play” is actually children practising the skills they’ll use for life.
