Today is National bee day. So far this week we’ve learnt many facts about bees. Did you know they do little dances when they see each other?
we’ve also enjoyed some sensory play with coloured rice and multiple resources. E even found some diggers that were the same colour as the rice so he added them into the play🙂. Well done E!

11-15th May.
Recently the children have shown lots of interest in different vehicles. So we decided to up our travel game and got on the bus to our local REME museum and play park. They had lots
Of different vehicle shaped play equipment and we got to look at a huge helicopter! Whilst there we spotted some big airplanes circling above us. (I think they’re Globemasters (military craft)from Fairford??). Towards the end of the week we decided to make our own race cars using a mixture or media including toilet roll inners, paint and bottle tops.

This week also included a lot of dance. Listening to our favourite songs and the new dance scarves Coco bought recently. The children enjoyed spinning around and watching the scarves float around with them. This was a great time to talk about spatial awareness and exercise.
The older children also spent time encouraging their younger friend to learn more clapping and standing with their support. The mixed aged abilities really show how important it is to mix with multiple ages of children as they can learn from each other in different ways.

Another fantastic week spent with my awesome little buddies 🙂

4-8th May.

This week the children have been really interested in transport so out came the car mat.
They really love the rainbow arches also and decided to use the arches as tunnels for their cars.
A great use of imagination and working together to get to their joint goal. They even encouraged their younger friend to copy them and showed him how to push the car through the tunnel. They had lots of patience which was lovely to see.
The older children, with support from an adult, have been encouraging C to stand more and even held his hands to show support and encouragement. They make me very proud for being so understanding and helpful with a much younger friend. Big well done I and E!
We’ve all been a little cuddly this week also and it was nice to be able to share some cuddles together.

27th-1may.

This week we loved getting out and about in the sunshine. We visited the local farm shop to visit the Alpacas and the goats before spending time in the sandpit. Our favourite activity!
Our youngest friend is learning an exciting new activity of pulling himself to stand, which all the older friends have been encouraging him to do.
We finished our week at the park playing football and cooling down with Fruity ice lollies 🥰

💔🦔 Bramble was rescued after being spotted on a wildlife camera in a garden, making jerky movements and holding his head tilted to one side.

When he arrived, we discovered the extent of what he’d been through. Old wounds across his face and neck suggest he’d been caught by a strimmer. Those injuries had become infected, and despite everything, he’d been struggling like this for quite some time.

By the time he reached us, he was in a very bad way.

Now, Bramble is finally getting the urgent medical care he needs - pain relief, treatment for infection, and the chance to rest safely. He has a long road ahead, but for the first time in a while, he doesn’t have to struggle alone.

Once he’s fully recovered, we’ll make sure he’s released into a safe, suitable habitat where he can truly thrive again 🌿

During , please remember how vulnerable these little animals are - especially to hazards like garden machinery. Checking areas before strimming or mowing can make all the difference💚

20-24 April.
This week we enjoyed lots of messy play and arts and crafts.
We celebrated earth day with balloon printing of the earth and we celebrated St George’s day by making our own flag on paper plates. We also painted big puddles as we love jumping in puddles.
The children really love sand play so we’ve been frequenting our local farm shop and they’re amazing out door sand play area in the barn. It’s also been a lovely week watching the older children help the younger ones as well as read and play with them. 🥰
