Today we laid our wreath at the war memorial. We read the names on the remembrance cross wooden tributes and the children said thank you to them all. Back at nursery we watched CBeebies "poppies" for our two minutes silence and listened to "The last Post." Whilst our children are only young, learning about Remembrance Day in an age appropriate way helps them to foster values such as respect, gratitude and the importance of community and learn about their history and the people who help to keep them safe.

We had a spooktacular time at our Halloween party! We started the day with a ghost hunt and everyone had to find one big ghost and one little ghost. We loved shouting down the tunnels pretending to be ghosts and witches! Back at nursery we did the Skeleton Shake and The Creepy Crawl as well as lots of other party dances. After lunch of Witches Stew and Monster Goo Jelly, we practiced flying our broomsticks. (See previous post) We had squashed beetles and flies for snack then it was time for party games before tea of crunchy bats and ghosts and magic potion cake. There was time for a few more games before it was time to go home. We all got a party bag with a glow in the dark bracelet and ghost to take home help us be seen if we were going trick or treating after nursery. What a fun day! We all had the best time.

Halloween broomstick training!
The children practiced stopping and starting before taking to their brooms and trying to fly! Unless my eyes are deceiving me, it looks like that little cat at the front actually succeeded! That's magic!
