What a magical day we’ve had celebrating World Book Day with one of our all time favourites, The Very Hungry Caterpillar! 🐛🍏🍉 🐶 A very special visitor! Rosie the therapy dog joined us for storytime, and the children loved cuddling up with her to enjoy some wonderful stories. 🐾 🎨 Messy fun! We got creative painting our own hungry caterpillars using balloons, such a fun way to explore colours and textures! Everyone got to take a balloon home! 🎈 🍰 Yummy treats! We enjoyed some Colin the Caterpillar cakes at teatime! 🧺 Sensory play and exploring! We explored some caterpillar themed activities, including a fun sensory tray filled with food from the story and lots of felt props. 👗📖 Fantastic costumes! The children looked absolutely brilliant in their book inspired outfits, it was amazing to see so many colourful and creative characters! A huge thank you to all our little book lovers for making today so special!

We had an amazing time celebrating Pancake Day today! The children loved exploring the ingredients, feeling the flour, mixing everything together, and of course, flipping the pancakes! To make our pancakes even more exciting, we chose delicious fruit toppings like blueberries, strawberries, and bananas. This fun activity encouraged sensory play, fine motor skills, and early literacy as we explored words like flour, egg, mix, flip, and pancake! 🥞 We also enjoyed reading Mr Wolf’s Pancakes and learned a fun new pancake song, Mix a Pancake by Christina Rossetti. The children had a great time singing along and acting out the steps to making pancakes! Who else is making pancakes today? What’s your favourite topping? 🍓🫐🍌
Our bright and beautiful Spring display is now up in the children’s library, and what better way to welcome 1st March than with a burst of colour and creativity! 🌼 📚 The children at Compass House Day Nursery have had a fantastic time creating their Spring plates, using a mix of painting, collage, and craft materials to bring the season to life. From fluffy lambs 🐑 and buzzing bees 🐝 to blossoming flowers 🌸 and colourful rainbows 🌈 , each plate is a unique and joyful celebration of Spring. 🌷 🐣 A huge thank you to our wonderful nursery families for supporting this project, the effort and imagination that went into every single piece are truly amazing! 🤩 We’ve also been enjoying a variety of lovely different Spring stories and rhymes, and we hope all the children visiting the library will love spotting signs of Spring and exploring the display. 🐥 It was lovely to see so many local families enjoying the library today, sharing stories, and taking in all the wonderful artwork. Petersfield Library offers lots of fantastic services for families with young children, including weekly storytimes, baby playtime, Teddy Tales, Toddler Time, Mini Masquerades, and Rhyme Times. It’s a wonderful place to explore, learn, and play together. 🥰 If you’re local, do pop into Petersfield Library to see the children’s creations, we’d love to hear what you think! 🎨 🌿
