Childminder Play Session

This morning we had a lovely morning at our monthly childminder messy play session run by Lark Children's Centre. 

Home Corner

Peek a Boo

Self Reflection

With the massive range of activities on offer the boys had a lovely time and were on the go solidly, until snack time that is!

Rainbow Blocks

Snack Time!

We enjoyed meeting up with lots of other childminders and their mindees. What a shame that this group will close in September due to government cuts, we shall be on the look out for something new!  

Happy Mothers Day!

A happy mothers day to all our mummies!! The children have been working very hard on some lovely little creations to show their appreciation to their mummies. 

Here's our finished indoor plant pots and our painted cards and a few pictures of the fun we had creating them. I hope the mummies enjoy them!

Bubbles

As we have had such lovely spring weather we have been making the most of being outside without freezing! This coincided nicely with the arrival of our new bubble machine. 

The children had great fun chasing the bubbles and trying to pop them. We also talked about the wind blowing the bubbles and attempted to count several of them before they blew away.

Even our youngest enjoyed trying to poke and catch the bubbles!

March Topic

Our underlying topic this month will be SPRING (let's hope that it brings some more spring like weather with it!)

As well as making some nice spring creations we will venture outdoors to attempt to find signs of spring, looking at the leaves and blossom growing on the trees. We have plenty of spring themed books and will endeavour to create spring in our small world play. We will also be looking at Easter this month. 

Visiting the Fish

Today we decided to go and see the fish at the aquarium again as one of the boys is very interested in sea horses at the moment. 

We met up with some friends and had a lovely time looking at all the fish, particularly the sharks. We also had to wait for several of the big boats to pass before we could cross the revolving bridge much to the fascination of the boys. 

 When we got home the boys wanted to do some drawings of fish. After some debating they decided that they wanted to colour in some sea horses and then chose to add their own sparkles!
