Looking back at what an amazing half term we had! ☀️

The children had a wonderful visit to the community farm 🌿🐑, and they absolutely loved seeing the animals up close and learning all about them. There were so many smiles as they explored together, followed by lots of fun in the mud kitchens creating their own muddy masterpieces!

We also shared a really heartwarming visit to a local care home 💛, where the children got creative making Easter crafts, enjoyed story time, and proudly took part in an Easter bonnet parade 🐣🌷. It was such a special experience for everyone involved.

Our trip to Swansea Community Library 📚 was another lovely memory, with interactive boards, board games and Easter colouring bringing lots of laughter while encouraging learning through play and teamwork.

And to top it all off, the children enjoyed a fantastic cinema trip to watch Hoppers 🎬🍿!

It really was a half term full of exploration, creativity and community—and we’re already looking forward to seeing what everyone gets up to next half term! 🤩

If you’d like to book your child (up to 12 years old) onto our Clwb Joio Holiday Club, please get in touch on 01792 978705 or joiodaynursery@gmail.com for more information.

Clwb Joio Holiday Club is open daily from 8:30am–5:00pm (excluding bank holidays).

Wrth edrych yn ôl ar hanner tymor bendigedig gawson ni! ☀️

Cafodd y plant ymweliad hyfryd â’r fferm gymunedol 🌿🐑, ac roedden nhw wrth eu bodd yn gweld yr anifeiliaid yn agos a dysgu amdanyn nhw. Roedd gymaint o wên wrth iddyn nhw archwilio gyda’i gilydd, ac wedyn cael hwyl yn y gegin fwd yn creu campweithiau mwdlyd!

Cawsom ni hefyd ymweliad hyfryd iawn â chartref gofal lleol 💛, lle bu’r plant yn gwneud crefftau Pasg, mwynhau amser stori a chymryd rhan mewn gorymdaith hetiau Pasg 🐣🌷. Roedd yn brofiad arbennig iawn i bawb.

Roedd ein trip i Lyfrgell Gymunedol Abertawe 📚 yn atgof hyfryd arall, gyda gemau rhyngweithiol, gemau bwrdd a lliwio Pasg yn dod â llawer o hwyl ac yn annog dysgu drwy chwarae a gweithio gyda’i gilydd.

Ac i orffen, mwynhaodd y plant drip sinema gwych i weld Hoppers 🎬🍿!

Hanner tymor llawn hwyl, creadigrwydd a phrofiadau cymunedol—ac rydyn ni’n edrych ymlaen yn barod at weld beth ddaw hanner tymor nesaf!

There’s something truly special about the everyday moments at Joio 🤍✨

Across both of our sites, the children embrace that beautiful hygge feeling slowing down, connecting, exploring, and finding joy in the simplest things.

From peaceful bird watching and sitting quietly together watching the boats drift by 🚤, to the excitement of woodland adventures and a big nature hunt 🌿🍂 every moment is filled with curiosity and wonder.

We’ve seen incredible creativity too… towers built with determination, loose parts transformed into imaginative creations, and the pure pride that comes with “I did it!” moments 🏗️

There have been heartwarming moments of care and connection ; friends role-playing hospital, gently looking after one another, showing empathy in the most natural and beautiful ways 🤍

And of course, plenty of movement and joy; climbing frames conquered, trees climbed with confidence 🌳, and lots of singing, dancing, and laughter filling the air 🎶💃

It’s these little moments that mean the most. The calm, the connection, the confidence, and the sense of belonging.

This is hygge. This is Joio. ✨

If you’d love your child to be part of moments like these, we’d love to hear from you. Get in touch today to find out more or arrange a visit

Mae rhywbeth wirioneddol arbennig am y munudau bob dydd yn Joio 🤍✨

Ar draws ein dau safle, mae’r plant yn cofleidio’r teimlad hyfryd hwnnw o hygge; arafu, cysylltu, archwilio, a dod o hyd i lawenydd yn y pethau symlaf.

O wylio adar yn dawel a chyd-eistedd yn gwylio’r cychod yn llithro heibio 🚤, i gyffro anturiaethau’r coetir a helfa fawr ym myd natur 🌿🍂 mae pob eiliad yn llawn chwilfrydedd a rhyfeddod.

Rydyn ni hefyd wedi gweld creadigrwydd anhygoel… tyrau’n cael eu hadeiladu gyda dyfalbarhad, darnau rhydd yn troi’n greadigaethau dychmygus, a’r balchder pur hwnnw o eiliadau “Fe wnes i!” 🏗️

Bu hefyd eiliadau cynnes o ofal a chysylltiad; ffrindiau’n chwarae rôl ysbyty, yn edrych ar ôl ei gilydd yn dyner, ac yn dangos empathi yn y ffyrdd mwyaf naturiol a hardd 🤍

Ac wrth gwrs, digon o symudiad a llawenydd; fframiau dringo’n cael eu meistroli, coed yn cael eu dringo gyda hyder 🌳, a llawer o ganu, dawnsio a chwerthin yn llenwi’r awyr 🎶💃

Y pethau bach hyn sy’n golygu’r mwyaf. Y tawelwch, y cysylltiad, yr hyder, a’r ymdeimlad o berthyn.

Dyma hygge. Dyma Joio. ✨

Os hoffech i’ch plentyn fod yn rhan o eiliadau fel hyn, byddem wrth ein bodd yn clywed gennych. Cysylltwch â ni heddiw i ddarganfod mwy neu i drefnu ymweliad

Y gair Cymraeg yr wythnos hon yw Caredigrwydd (wedi’i ynganu fel: ka-reh-DIG-roo-ith yn y Saesneg), sy’n golygu caredigrwydd.

Mae’r gair yn adlewyrchu gwerthoedd gofal, tosturi, a haelioni tuag at eraill. Gall hyd yn oed y weithred leiaf o garedigrwydd wneud gwahaniaeth ystyrlon a pharhaol yn nyddiau rhywun. Yn niwylliant Cymru, mae’n cynrychioli pwysigrwydd ysbryd cymunedol, empathi, a chefnogi ei gilydd – egwyddorion bythol sy’n parhau i fod yn berthnasol heddiw.

Anogir ein haelodau i ymarfer caredigrwydd mewn gweithgareddau bob dydd. Gall camau syml helpu i greu amgylchedd mwy cadarnhaol a chynhwysol:

Gan gynnwys eraill trwy eu gwahodd i ymuno â gemau neu weithgareddau grŵp, yn enwedig y rhai a allai deimlo eu bod wedi’u gadael allan
Defnyddio iaith garedig a pharchus, fel dweud “os gwelwch yn dda”, “diolch”, a chynnig canmoliaeth
Helpu eraill gyda thasgau, boed hynny’n waith ysgol neu weithgareddau a rennir
Gwrando’n ofalus a dangos parch at feddyliau a theimladau eraill
Rhannu yn deg a chymryd tro wrth ddefnyddio offer neu le
Anogir pawb i gofleidio caredigrwydd a chyfrannu at amgylchedd cefnogol a chroesawgar i bawb.

This week’s featured Welsh word is Caredigrwydd (pronounced: ka-reh-DIG-roo-ith), meaning kindness.

The word reflects the values of care, compassion, and generosity towards others. Even the smallest act of caredigrwydd can make a meaningful and lasting difference in someone’s day. In Welsh culture, it represents the importance of community spirit, empathy, and supporting one another – timeless principles that remain relevant today.

Our members are encouraged to practise caredigrwydd in everyday activities. Simple actions can help create a more positive and inclusive environment:

Including others by inviting them to join games or group activities, particularly those who may feel left out
Using kind and respectful language, such as saying “please”, “thank you”, and offering compliments
Helping others with tasks, whether it be schoolwork or shared activities
Listening carefully and showing respect for others’ thoughts and feelings
Sharing fairly and taking turns when using equipment or space.
Everyone is encouraged to embrace caredigrwydd and contribute to a supportive and welcoming environment for all.
