Today at Sammy Bear Day Care, we had a wonderful adventure! 🐻✨

We took a trip on the bus to Ouseburn Farm, and the children had such an exciting day exploring and learning together. The bus ride itself was a big highlight, with lots of smiles, chatter, and excitement along the way! 🚌💛

At the farm, the children developed their holistic skills as they communicated and socialised with one another, sharing their thoughts and excitement about all the animals they saw. We spotted pigs, chickens, ducks, swans, goats, and even some adorable new baby lambs! 🐑🐖🐓

The fun didn’t stop there – the children were fascinated by snakes, lizards, colourful parrots, and even a large snail! 🐍🦜🐌

It was a fantastic day full of learning, laughter, and curiosity. The children have been full of smiles from start to finish, and we are so proud of how they engaged with the experience and with each other. 🌟

What a lovely day making memories together! 💚

Today we visited Newburn Park and had the best time 🌿✨

The children ran straight to the play area, climbing, swinging, and racing each other down the slides. There was so much laughter around the park. We took a slow walk along the river and soaked up the fresh air.

The highlight of the day was meeting a beautiful horse nearby. The children were so excited — a little nervous at first, but completely amazed once they got closer. What a special moment. 🐴💛

On the way back to nursery, the children spotted a police car. We were greeted by a police officer and his dog and he told us some fun facts about his car! 👮‍♂️

Simple days like this at Newburn Park really are the best — fresh air, rosy cheeks, and memories we’ll be talking about for a long time.

We’ve had a blast here this morning at Sammy Bears day care🧸🌈.

What a wonderful day we’ve had on our latest adventure during holiday club!🚌✨

The children were so excited to hop on the bus and head into town for a special outing. Our first stop was the quayside, where we enjoyed taking in the sights before heading into the Baltic. The children had a fantastic time exploring the play room and sensory area – there were so many exciting textures, spaces and activities to discover!

After lots of exploring, everyone sat together to enjoy their lunch, chatting happily about their favourite parts of the morning. 😊

In the afternoon, we walked up to Chinatown, where the children explored the surroundings and learned all about the celebration of Chinese New Year. The children were so curious and asked lots of thoughtful questions!

It was a fun-filled day packed with new experiences, learning opportunities and plenty of smiles. We are so proud of how beautifully the children behaved while out in the community – they were fantastic ambassadors for our nursery! 🌟

🥞✨ Shrove Tuesday Fun at Sammy Bears Holiday Club! ✨🥞

The children took part in lots of wonderful activities throughout the day. We made our very own playdough pancakes, using our imaginations and developing our fine motor skills as we rolled, shaped and flipped them.

In our maths area, we developed our number skills by writing numbers in trays and matching them to our pancakes – fantastic counting and number recognition everyone! 🔢

We also got creative decorating our paper pancakes with lots of colourful toppings, showing off our brilliant creativity.

To make our day even more special, we went for a walk to our local shop to choose pancake toppings. The children did an amazing job selecting their toppings independently and talking about their choices. Back at nursery, we enjoyed creating our own delicious pancakes and, of course, eating them too! 🍓🫐🍌

What a fun-filled day of learning, exploring and celebrating together! 💛

We hope everyone enjoys their pancakes tonight☺️

We are definitely feeling the love here at Sammy Bear Day Care this week as we’ve been celebrating Valentine’s Day in lots of wonderful ways! ❤️

Our children have taken part in a variety of exciting activities designed to support their holistic development. We explored our creative side with love heart printing, getting messy with paint and expressing ourselves through colour and pattern. While printing, we also developed our mathematical language by describing the hearts using new words such as “big,” “small,” and “medium.” It’s been fantastic to see the children confidently using these terms during their play!

We’ve also enjoyed a range of sensory activities, giving the children opportunities to explore different textures, smells, and materials — supporting their communication skills, fine motor development, and understanding of the world around them.

From creative arts to hands-on exploration, this week has been filled with kindness, sharing, and lots of smiles. 💕

Thank you to our wonderful children and families for making it such a special week at Sammy Bears, we hope you all have a lovely Valentines weekend!🧸😘❤️

Today we couldn’t help but explore the snow with our little people.

We extended the ‘real’ snow inside with a flour activity mixed with cotton balls and other materials.

The children investigated and used new words such as ‘squishy, melting, frozen’

What a day to be at nursery- happy faces all round ⛄️
