A festive invitation to make marks 🎄

Christmas is creeping up on us, and after a cosy storytime and an insightful chat about writing letters to Father Christmas, we got to it ourselves! 🥰

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas.. 🎄

A frosty morning through toddler eyes ❄️

Woke up to excited whispers and a little face pressed to the window… “Look! Snow on the grass!”
Just a magical dusting of frost, but to a curious little explorer, it was the whole world sparkling.
Love seeing the seasons through tiny wonder-filled eyes.

Puzzles, giggles and teamwork 🧩✨
“Try this piece!”… “I think it fits!”

Little ones huddled around the table, swapping ideas, cheering each other on and building more than pictures – they're building friendships too.
Love watching their tiny team come together!

This morning we went to our favourite forest school Saplings in the Wood

I truly adore this place, and even more so sharing our time with our friends from Little Oats 🌿

Plus, when you book in November you get amazing hot drinks included and I can honestly say I had the best oat milk hot chocolate that I’ve probably ever had! 😍

🐐✨ A day full of giggles and muddy boots at Woolley Animals! The children fed the goats and alpacas, spotted ducks in Duckingham Palace, and even met a very curious pig 🐖
After a play on the toy tractors and a picnic in the sunshine, we all headed home with happy hearts (and the quietest journey home ever with sleepy children!) 🌾☀️
A wholesome day out with our friends at Little Oats Childminding— full of simple joys and big memories 🧺🐾

🍂 Autumn Sensory Play 🍂

Today the children have been exploring an autumn-themed sensory tray filled with lentils, oats, conkers, twigs and colourful leaves. Using scoops, spoons and tongs, they poured, mixed and created their own little autumn scenes ~ developing fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and early maths concepts as they played. A wonderful way to bring the beauty of nature into our play and spark curiosity through the changing seasons. 🌾🍁

🍂✨ Today our playdough met the magic of autumn! With conkers, sticks, and leaves, the children created hedgehogs, cakes, and so many wonderful ideas of their own. By blending play with the treasures of nature, imagination bloomed and the outdoors became part of their creations. 🌿🦔🍁
