✨🎄 Our First Week of December Has Been Pure Magic! 🎄✨

The Christmas spirit has truly arrived, nursery is twinkling, the children are smiling, and their laughter seems to dance through every doorway. It’s been such a joy watching them soak up every moment of festive fun. ❤️✨

And of course… our cheeky little elf has made his return! The children can’t get enough of his antics, and their excitement is so infectious! 🎅✨

Here’s to a December filled with wonder, warmth, and even more Christmas sparkle! 🌟💖

🎄✨The children have been busy writing their letters to Santa ahead of Emma returning to pick them up, and honestly… the imagination this year is next level!

Best requests so far include:
🐄 A milking parlour (Santa may need to expand his workshop!)
🍪 Just biscuits....nothing else on that list (can’t argue with that one!)
🐶 A dog (Santa… good luck with this one!)

Once they’re sealed up, the letters will make their magical journey all the way to the North Pole...and then back to you 😉 so you can keep them as little keepsakes to treasure forever. ❤️

Today we had a very special visit from Emma, our Christmas Postie! She told us all about her exciting job and brought us some toys so we could pretend to be posties too! ✉️🎅🏻

We were VERY excited when Emma produced a Christmas postbox and said she would send our letters to Santa for us....we better get busy writing them!!! ❤️

Thank you for your time Emma, we can't wait to see you in a few weeks!

Lily said "we need to do a tiktok" and who are we to argue with the one who keeps us feeling young and on trend 💅🏼 (she tells us what's not cool....emojis are ok apparently! 💪🏼)

The children have been loving the new Christmas decor and can't believe the elves did it all in one night 😉

This morning we popped down to Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice to drop off the money raised at our Autumn Fayre 💜

We’ve been lucky enough to visit a few times during the planning process, and each time has been so special. We’ve had the chance to meet some of the amazing children and families who benefit from everything Bluebell Wood does, and it’s truly inspiring to see the difference they make every day.

We’re so proud to support such an incredible charity and can’t wait to continue working with them in the future! If you’d like to, we’ll also be collecting donations again at our Christmas event, every little bit helps and is hugely appreciated 🎄✨

Did you spot our Willowtree tractor at the Pen*stone Tractor Run!? 🚜

We loved being part of such a fantastic community event. ☺️ Days like this remind us how important it is to come together, support one another, and celebrate our local roots!

Thank you for C&A Howe for letting us use their tractor so we could take part. And thank you Jamie for being the driver.

We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did! 💚

As a management team, we can honestly say....This is the best team ever!💛

Our incredible staff are full of joy, compassion, patience, creativity, and dedication, you make Willowtree what it is, and we couldn’t do it without you! ✨

On Friday, you stayed late to sprinkle extra Christmas magic over the nursery… all for the children, because they deserve the most magical childhood. At Willowtree, our big, happy family creates a home away from home, where there’s always someone to snuggle with, laugh with, and go on adventures with. In this warm, joyful environment, children thrive every single day. 🎄💛

Thank you ladies, for everything you do, you truly make magic happen every day! ✨

📚 We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, Sensory Story Exploration! 🐻✨

This week, the children enjoyed an immersive reading of We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, diving into the textures, colours, and sensations that bring each part of the story to life.

As we journeyed through the tale, the children explored sensory boards linked to each obstacle, feeling the soft snow of the “snowstorm,” the squish of the “oozy mud,” and the swishy textures of the long, wavy grass. These hands-on moments sparked wonderful conversations about how each environment might feel as the characters moved through it.

To extend their learning, we set up a Bear Hunt inspired sensory tray, complete with story characters. The children returned to this storytelling station throughout the week, using it to act out the adventure together, retelling the story with excitement and growing confidence.

A fantastic week of sensory play, storytelling, and imagination! 🌟📖🐾
