This week, we had a very exciting surprise – Phoebe the guinea pig came to visit! The children were absolutely delighted to meet her and learn all about how to care for guinea pigs. They had the opportunity to gently stroke her soft fur and watch her nibble on her favourite treats🍎🥬. It was a wonderful hands on experience that helped the children develop empathy and curiosity about animals. Thank you, Phoebe, for being such a calm and friendly guest! We can’t wait to welcome you back again soon.

We’ve enjoyed lots of fun and exciting Christmas activities this week at nursery! It’s been lovely to see everyone so excited! Thank you so much for our amazing gifts and cards. We wish all our families a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. We look forward to seeing everyone on Monday 6th January. 🎄
We had lots of fun making Father Christmas handprint tree decorations this week.
 We made a dinosaur swamp and it was so much fun making muddy dinosaur footprints. 🦖🦕
We all had so much fun this morning playing in the snow! We enjoyed making big and small footprint patterns with our wellie boots. We put some snow in our tray to play with and we made a little snowman. It was funny watching the snow melt into slushy ice.
 This week, we have been enjoying our indoor growing project and we’ve been learning lots of fun facts about nature and science along the way! We planted some cress seeds into yoghurt pots and we later decorated the pots with eyes and mouths to give them little faces. Our adorable little cress heads are now sitting happily on the windowsill and we will be watering them to keep the cotton wool damp. Our cress pots will be coming home in a few weeks time. 🌱
 Today, we made a pretend bonfire using twigs and leaves. We had fun creating colourful fireworks using chalks and we used our fingers to smudge the chalk in the play tray.
We’ve had a busy and fun half term week at nursery. We made pretend pumpkin pies, soup and colourful potions. We used apples to print pumpkin shapes and we enjoyed making biscuits to take home. We learnt a new song which we all enjoyed singing together. Five Little Pumpkins is a super fun song that teaches emotions vocabulary. The five pumpkins are happy, grumpy, sleepy and sad. But in the end, all of them are happily playing! 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃 One little pumpkin smiling, smiling. One little pumpkin smiling, smiling. One little pumpkin smiling, smiling. One little pumpkin is happy. 🎃 Two little pumpkins pouting, pouting. Two little pumpkins pouting, pouting. Two little pumpkins pouting, pouting. Two little pumpkins are grumpy. 🎃 Three little pumpkins yawning, yawning. Three little pumpkins yawning, yawning. Three little pumpkins yawning, yawning. Three little pumpkins are sleepy. 🎃 Four little pumpkins crying, crying. Four little pumpkins crying, crying. Four little pumpkins crying, crying. Four little pumpkins are sad. 🎃 Five little pumpkins laughing, laughing. Five little pumpkins laughing, laughing. Five little pumpkins laughing, laughing. Five little pumpkins are playing. 🎃
We used broccoli 🥦 as a tool to paint different Autumn patterns and leaves. We had fun using the tweezers to pick up the pieces of broccoli and we counted them together. Thank you to our families for the amazing big leaves, Autumn books and hedgehog pictures this week, your support is really appreciated. 🍂🦔🍃
 This week, we have been enjoying some early years sensory pumpkin play. As well as being great fun, sensory play can help children develop their language, motor skills, and coordination!
