This time next week the car boot sales will be open again! We definitely need to ‘stock up’!

Resharing some of our more ‘physical’ areas - we always consider how we can support children developing gross motor skills - more so this September following lockdown when the parks/outdoor opportunities were limited! Lots of opportunities outdoors but also in the indoor environment - you ...won’t find any chairs - benches and stools have replaced them to develop core strength, table heights are varied and there’s lots of large construction - and a swing!

On the hunt for a second pair of step ladders to turn into more shelves! A morning Facebook scroll!

The new wood shed is smaller than we had (for now!) but there’s still room to make - and I couldn’t say no to scaffold boards!

The swamp! Gellibaff is always a favourite! Pondering the tuff tray for growing ..... has to be mud?!

Can’t wait to get this filled up with sand again after Easter!

Who knew that umbrellas would be the addition to get even the most reluctant outside on a rainy day!

Today was very wet! An aquarium filled the outside space - growing from one bucket to a series of bowls and gutters!

Not the prettiest of photos but I love that the children love our woodies just as much as I do. They managed to make their way into our maths lesson today.

One of our pre school practitioners sets up the dolls each evening in a different scene! The children love coming in to see what they’re up to - it’s like Xmas morning every day! Today was little red riding hood in her cape, with basket listening to the story! A little bit of magic!

Online gin tasting evenings @york_gin are the best fun - but I was equally excited by the packaging to support our ‘nest building’ provocation!

One of my favourite books of all time! After Easter our over arching topic is ‘me,myself and I’ and this text is perfect! Now we just need the car boot sales to start to replenish our ‘memories’!
