Did you know a sparkler can reach a temperature of up to 2,000 degrees Celsius – 20 times the boiling point of water, and three sparklers burning together generate the same heat as a blowtorch!
The Child Accident Prevention Trust recommend children under 5 years old should not be given sparklers to hold. For children over 5 you can use a carrot to help children hold them safely

As the clocks go back an hour this weekend, you might want to think about making small changes to bedtime for you and your family over the course of the next few days.
⏰Gradually start your evening routine later by up to 15 minutes a night starting with teatime and bath time
☀️Don't forget to wake your child up later the next morning if they haven't woken already to gradually change their body clock
✅Start this new routine tonight so hopefully you and your child won't notice the changes as much.
If you need further support or advice about sleep routine please call the Single Point of Contact on 0300 021 8997

Find out what skills help children have a confident and successful start in Reception. Explore Starting Reception – a simple guide for families

Your child's journey to school starts at home. We understand that all children develop at their own pace, and that we’re all learning from birth. With school readiness, some children will need more help than others.

Are you decorating your home this Halloween? Light-up decorations such as pumpkins, cauldrons, torches and wands are fantastic for creating a spooktactular atmosphere. But many of these items are powered by button batteries which can badly hurt or kill a child if swallowed.
That’s why it’s so important when buying button battery-powered Halloween novelties that you check the battery compartment is secured with a screw or similar fastener to prevent children gaining access.
