Hope everyone has had a great half term.
This week we will be reintroducing our sensory baskets for playgroup to explore at story-time which will have different objects and materials that support our weekly theme.

Sensory baskets support children’s speech and language development by;

- Expanding their vocabulary
- Providing a natural way to introduce and practice descriptive words related to textures, colours, shapes and sizes
- Encouraging shared focus, turn taking and social communication skills

We are excited to start using these baskets again. Our first basket is under the sea/pirates and we have two lovely stories to go alongside.

Hello,

We had a great first week back after the Easter holidays. The children choice of topic was Dianey. We made Micky or Minny mouse head bands. We had a very popular craft of making a Forky from Toy story with bamboo forks, pipe cleaners and the children drew his face on. We had dressing up clothes out every day and a selection of material so the children could make their own dressing up. Superhero capes were often requested!
Garden snack time when weather allowed. And lots of our continuous provision out to invite the children to lots of lovely learning and play
This week is Earth week to celebrate 🥳 World Earth Day. Today we have had coloured foam sensory play with dinos and people. We've been using recycled cardboard for painting activities. We will be offering a make our own world 🌎 gluing and sticking activity. Asking the children to help us make a big art world with painty handprints. We will be looking at measurements in ans sizes in a fun focused task and making nature paint brushes. And encouraging the child to do as much recycling as they can while in group.
Thank you 😊

Sunday sort day in Playgroup. Auntie's Emily, Nerys, Jo B and daughter, Angela, Rachael, Rosie and daughter, Sara and children and myself Lisa came into group today to clean, tidy, clean and sort our resources. And the wonderful trustees Jess, Kirsty, hubby and daughter, Tazmin, hubby and children came in to refresh our Playhouse with what we thought would be just a tidy up repaint. But these fabulous ladies have been wonderfully creative and added some lovely details to make it look fantastic! So thank you everyone 💓 the children will love it! Xx
