Wonderland Day Nursery

Our Alices Tots children enjoyed making chocolate apples. They used melted chocolate and sprinkles. They tasted yummy 🍫🍎

⚠️ A yellow heat-health alert has been issued by the Met Office from Friday 7 July to Sunday 9 July in the West Midlands.

💥⬆️ This alert means that we can expect increasing temperatures and humidity. Keep an eye on anyone who is isolated, ill, vulnerable or very young and make sure they can keep cool too.

Here’s a reminder of ways to stay safe during hot weather spells:
🔵 Keep out of the sun at the hottest time of the day, between 11am and 3pm
🔵 If you need to go out, try to walk in the shade, apply sunscreen and wear a hat
🔵 Avoid too much exercise. If you are going to do a physical activity such as exercise or walking the dog, aim to do these in the morning or evening when it is cooler
🔵 Drink plenty of water, avoiding excess alcohol, caffeine and hot drinks
🔵 Keep your living space cool - keep windows that are exposed to the sun closed during the day, and open windows at night when the temperature has dropped. Close curtains that receive morning or afternoon sun

💧 It may be tempting to cool down in hot weather, but cold water shock kills and has hidden dangers that can trap even the strongest swimmers.
❌ Never swim in any form of open water, unless part of an organised club
❌ Don't allow children to play near water without an adult present

➡️ Beat the heat - go to our website for tips and advice. Link in comments.

Congratulations to Leanna who won Employee of the Term between April and June 2023. Well done and keep up the amazing work 👏🌟
