Today is Play Day 2025!
Playday’s theme for this year is…

“Spaces for Play.
This year’s theme highlights the vital importance of accessible, inclusive spaces where children and young people have opportunities to play freely, spending time, and connecting with friends – and feel valued as part of their community. Children will play anywhere and everywhere, so access to quality playful spaces and places is essential for their happiness and development, offering opportunities to boost both physical health and emotional well-being.”

Play park trips can be great chances for kids to hear all sorts of action words like 'swing', 'spin', 'up', 'down' and 'round and round'
If you say the words for the actions as they do them, they'll begin to connect the meanings of the words with the actions
You could name the pieces of equipment that children play on. You could give them a choice and let them lead 'Do you want to go on the swings or the slide?'
Why not try playing ready, steady, go games on the swings? Pull them back and build tension by saying 'ready... steady...' and wait for them to respond or look at you before saying 'go!' and pushing them.
You could bring a teddy or favourite toy with you. Your child will enjoy letting them play on the equipment too and acting out the things they do with teddy. This helps reinforce the meanings for them.

International Tiger Day!

Does your little one love ‘The Tiger Who Came to Tea?’ by Judith Kerr as much as we do?

As you read the story, you could talk with your child about different things that you might find in the kitchen – e.g. “I wonder what other food he might find…”, or you could talk about a food category, e.g. “what other vegetables might he find?”.

There are also lots of interactive videos on YouTube of ‘The Tiger Who Came to Tea’ read by a variety of people.
