We are a larger child minders due to having 3 members of staff which means a higher ratio to promote social skills with a mixed age group of children from 8months- 4 years.

We have had such a fun week learning new skills and playing together.

The children have been working on lots of different areas of learning and building relationships with their peers.

We have been lucky to have such nice weather, means lots of messy play going on in the garden.

We have had such a fun pack day, the children loved the new mud kitchen and mastered the taps to fill, pour and mix up a storm using fresh flowers and yellow stone food stones.

They also enjoyed building with the foam construction bricks working as a team to be creative.

Exciting delivery today a mud kitchen with real working taps I can see this being the high light of garden play this summer.

Friday we got creative with foam blocks working as a team to build different structures.

Today is super horrid and hot so sun cream and hats a must.

Wow it’s warm out, we have been finding different ways to stay cool.
Lots of water play pouring, squirting and mixing seems to be the favourite activity when the sun is shining.

Please remember to send sun cream, sun hat and change of clothing in now the weather has changed.

What a fantastic day the children had celebrating us being awarded planning permission to mixed use change, means the children can continue to learn together through play with the support of the amazing staff who will retain their jobs.

We would like to thank everyone who supported us in our applications, a big thank you to the local councillors and committee members that made it possible by voting to over turn planning’s recommendations to refuse and lobbied to have it accepted.

We are overwhelmed and greatful to everyone who made this happen, and continued to support a service that matters to the community.
Thank you so much

We had such a great day on Thursday playing in the garden, learning new skills while learn together through play.

We got creative by working together to paint on a giant canvas and chalking on the patio , using big movements for gross motor skills whilst using a stretching motion.

As usual the mud kitchen and water area was a hive of activity with chopping mixing and pouring to make food for the shop they had constructed, using foam bricks, tyres and wooden blocks and planks.

All in all a fun packed day for the little ones.

We have had a lovely day enjoying the warm weather mixing in the garden amongst other activities.

We have a new addition to the setting a kitten called Flounder, his so fluffy 😀 the children will be excited to meet him tomorrow morning and learn gental hands as they watch him grow.

Mixing up a storm using shaving foam whilst enjoying having messy hands, of course afterwards they enjoyed washing up to Remove the foam from the utensils

We have had a fun packed week of child lead play in the garden, the children used the open ended resources to work together to build different climbing structures.

We also enjoyed water play using fresh flowers and balls.

Please remember to pack sun hats and sun cream for next week as set to be a warm week.

The children have been learning about dental hygiene, to encourage and promote why it’s important to brush our teeth.

We sorted food groups in to good and bad and talked about what makes them good for teeth and what makes them bad.

We talked about how to brush our teeth and watched a short film on techniques to use .

Colgate provided all children with a new tooth brush and tooth paste so they can continue what they have learn at home.

Tomorrow we are excited we will be having a visit from our animal friends so lunch may run late on this day.

The children have been having lots of fun over the last week, one of the little ones lives on a farm and she was so excited to show off her new piglets to all her friends.

We hope to have a visit from the animals next week date to be confirmed, but we are excited to welcome back Browells wood pet therapy, so all the children can meet the new piglets amongst other furry friends

We have been gifted these Uncle Goose chips for the children to try which they seemed to enjoy.

The children enjoyed the feel of the smooth wooden tiles as they began to recognise the animal printed on one side.

We decided to use them to tell stories and play matching games by sorting the different species of animals in to groups.

We will no doubt find other ways to play with them in the coming weeks.

We look forward to our next delivery.

As part of our brand rep position with @woodbeenice we've been gifted these beautiful chips (wooden flash cards) from @unclegoose

These have animals on one side and their collective noun on the other; we've all been learning! To start off, we have been asking the littles to select a chip and then we have been trying to create stories to include each animal. We will be developing our work with them over the next few weeks.

First week back and the children have settled straight back in,enjoying learning through play and sharing their Christmas memories with each other.

Today was a dry day so we enjoyed shaving foam by mixing and painting with it in the garden.

In-side we had activities to work on fine motor skills and cognitive thinking which the children seemed to really enjoy.

It’s been a fun packed first day back, was lovely to see all the children excited to see their friends after Christmas break.

Seems like they have all had a great Christmas.

Today is our last working day of the year. We reopen on Tuesday the 3rd January, wishing everyone a merry Christmas, we look forward to what next year brings with are mini friends.
