Food is more than a mealtime. 🍎

It’s trying new flavours, sharing stories around the table, learning where food comes from and building confidence to make choices for themselves.

At our nurseries, food is part of everyday learning. From growing and preparing ingredients to enjoying nutritious meals together, children have plenty of opportunities to explore, discover and develop healthy habits along the way.

Because mealtimes aren’t just about what’s on the plate. They’re about learning, connecting and growing.

Just look at our gorgeous rascal getting dressed up in a fancy dress, and a handbag. Getting dressed up gives children a sense of freedom, control and transformation through imaginative play. It helps them experiment with new roles such as a dressing up a firefighter, or as a doctor. Quite simply, costumes introduce an element of magic and physical transformation that makes everyday early years play feel much more exciting and vivid.

Our pre-schoolers have been super busy creating in the garden. They made a track for the cars to go on, they decided to use wooden blocks, a ramp and a chair to build a track on. This is a great open-ended activity for children to take part in. This child-led construction perfectly spans multiple areas of the EYFS. The children are learning what makes a ramp sturdy, they are using mathematics to decide if the wooden blocks and the chair make the ramp tall enough, and they are exploring forces such as gravity, speed and friction.

The children have been busy making pumpkin pictures, the nursery is feeling very Autumnal 🍁🍂 They have been gluing and sticking, and using different coloured textures to create their pumpkins. This little boy really liked the shiny cellophane on his pumpkin!

Risk

Allowing children to take managed risks in the Early Years Foundation Stage is essential because it helps develop critical life skills, emotional resilience, and independent-hazard assessment abilities.

Building confidence - Trying new physical challenges and succeeding helps children trust their own abilities and tackle further hurdles.

Developing problem solving - Facing uncertainty forces children to think creatively, test boundaries and make safe decisions.

Fostering resilience - Experiencing minor tumbles and setbacks teaches children how to cope with frustration and bounce back.

Plus look how much the children are thoroughly loving themselves in the garden!

🌟 Things staff members do (and probably parents too) because we work in the Early Years Foundation Stage 🌟

✨We automatically start rocking anything we're holding, even if we're standing still
✨We hear a child crying in the supermarket and instantly try to work out who it is and what they might need
✨We automatically say 'big step' when someone steps off a kerb (this happens with our teenage and adult children 😄)
✨ We see a cow in a field when driving in the car and say 'Moo' to other adults
✨ We can smell a dirty nappy from approximately three post codes away
✨We see a kitchen roll tube or a cardboard box and immediately think 'I could use that' and start thinking about making ramps or building towers
✨We have accidentally told grown ups 'to use your words'
✨We automatically start counting stairs as we walk up them counting '1, 2, 3'.

Very amusing as we all love our jobs and naturally do this on a daily basis 💚

We have been loving going for walks around the village. Cheeky Hens went for a walk around the village and found lots of large leaves to bring back to the nursery, they have been drawing over the leaves to make marks on pieces of paper. They were also looking at different sized conkers, they bought them back to the nursery to go into plastic bottles, they love shaking them and see the noises that they make.

As we approach the 'ber' months, Lynette and her team have been super busy growing pumpkins for the children to use 🍁🍂. The children are fascinated watching the pumpkins grow and they have been taking care of them by watering them every day. There has been some wonderful mathematical comments as they have been talking about 'how big' the biggest pumpkin is. Lynette and her team have bought lots of different sized pumpkins and the children have been talking about them. They have also got lovely pumpkin stories to read. I cannot wait to see what activities they decide to do with their pumpkins!
