🐾🐰🐹 A trip to Pets at Home! 🐠💕
Today our babies had the best time visiting Pets at Home! We saw lots of different animals, including colourful fish, cheeky hamsters, adorable guinea pigs and fluffy bunnies. 🐟🐹🐰

The excitement was contagious as the children ran around squealing with delight! They also had lots of fun exploring the pet toys and, of course, testing out all the different doggie beds! 🐶🛏️😂

What a lovely, exciting and memorable little adventure! 💕✨

Today, Ruby, Louise, and Paulina took the children to the farm. We explored the area, spotting numerous animals 🐷🐐. The children fed the goats with an open palm and washed their hands afterwards. We discussed the importance of keeping our hands clean to get rid off germs after stroking the animals 🫧🧼.

We also observed the pigs, cows, meerkats, and alpacas 🦙. The children roamed around the farm, imitating various animal sounds 😊. We had a great time!
