It was ‘Splendid Superheroes’ this week at The Nursery School Storrington and Thomas A'Becket Infant School. 🦸🏽‍♂️🦸

We warmed up with the PJ Masks. We were fast like Catboy, flew like Owlette and even walked on the ceiling like Gekko!!
We then learned spider pose and shot out webs to capture the Green Goblin. 🕷️
After reading Super Daisy, who saved the World from Planet Pea (well nearly 🫛!), we then used pea popping power on the parachute!
Take a look at our ‘super’ themed mindfulness activities below 👇
After bubbles, we practised our breathing by flying on our tummies like Superman/woman and blew away balls of Kryptonite!! 🟢

Super job everyone 🤩 🦸🏻‍♀️

Lots of animal yoga poses this week at The Nursery School Worthing and Thomas A'Becket Infant School.
After ‘walking through the jungle’ to warm up, we read ‘Dear Zoo’ performing the animal poses as we went along; elephant 🐘, giraffe 🦒, lion 🦁, camel 🐪, monkey 🙈, snake 🐍, frog 🐸 and puppy 🐶 pose!
We then made an animal trampoline using the parachute. 😀

To end the session, we enjoyed bubbles followed by relaxation ☺️

There was lots of huffing and puffing this week with the big bad wolf as he tried to blow down ‘The Three Little Pig’s’ houses!

We performed; pig, wolf, house, cauldron and tree pose this week.
‘Straw’ went flying on the parachute as we blew down the first little pigs house and there were lots of themed mindfulness activities.

To finish, we practised our breathing by blowing ping-pong balls across the room.

Well done everyone 👏

Butterfly Yoga at Home

I’m thinking about starting a small, calm and friendly yoga and mindfulness group for home-educated children (ages 5-8).
The idea would be a 2 hour session in my home, with a small group (maximum 5 children) including;

🦋 Yoga, mindfulness activities and relaxation
🦋 Each week has a different theme with discreet learning opportunities weaved in
🦋 Healthy snack and social time
🦋 Games, colouring/crafts
🦋 Story to finish

I’d love to create something that feels nurturing, relaxed and supportive - especially for children who might benefit from a quieter environment and small group setting.

Before I go ahead, I just wanted to ask - is this something anyone would be interested in? Or is there anything you’d particularly look for in a session like this?

Please feel free to comment or message me privately if you’d prefer.

Thank you so much

A lovely session with ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’ 🐛 at The Nursery School Storrington this morning.

We completed egg, caterpillar, cocoon and butterfly pose as we read the story.

We then did some super caterpillar wiggling under the parachute to find some healthy fruit to feed the hungry caterpillar! 🍎 🍐 🍓 🍊

Next, we enjoyed some themed mindfulness activities, before bubbles and relaxation.

Great job Nursery School 2 🌟
