As we can’t avoid Coronavirus (COVID-19) all over the news, we are teaching our children about germs in a fun and engaging manner, using the simple pepper, water and soap idea! 👏🏻 #kGemsValentines #Nursery #AvoidGerms #2020 #SafeguardingOurChildren #OurPassionTheirFuture

Can you guess what the babies book of the week is? 📚

He has terrible tusks and terrible claws 🐾

That’s right! It’s the GRUFFALO!
In this activity, we included cereals, brown sugar, lentils, rice, rocks and some natural resources such as leaves and logs. Our aim is to encourage children to love and enjoy reading books, to say a word(s) and to play alongside others. 😊

The toddlers are really enjoying the Gruffalo story at the moment, so we have set this activity up. We will discuss how brave the mouse 🐭 was when it was approached by the fox 🦊, owl 🦉and the snake 🐍 knowing they wanted to eat him and more so being able to scare the gruffalo. Children will also be able to role play using the props and they can also talk about the different textures they feel from the cereal, sand and pasta. #kGemsValentines #Gruffalo #SmallWorldActivities #MessyPlay #Toddlers #ParkNursery #Clayhall #love #children #OurPassionTheirFuture #Ilford

Let’s go to the seaside! 🏖
The babies have a seaside sensory play, with blue coloured spaghetti for the sea, sand and green crushed up weetabix for grass. As well as toy animals and tools to play with the sand.
The aim of this activity is to increase the babies fine motor skills and explore different textures as well as teach them the joys of the sea side and what animals they can find!! ☀️🦀🏝

The toddlers love the role play area so we have decided to put out diggers, yellow jackets and builder hats to get them into the role of builders! We have also included bricks, sand and stone to make it look and feel like a real construction site. #kGemsValentines #Builders #ConstructionSite #ParkNursery #Clayhall #love #children #OurPassionTheirFuture #Ilford

Happy Friday and Happy Valentine’s Day! 💓
Today, as we celebrate valentines/hearts day by wearing red we have put out red activities.
We have set out some simple yet fun activities for the children:
❣️Red numbered tin cans and bean bags. The aim of this activity is to throw the bean bag which develops their physical coordination and skills as they throw and target the tin cans.
❣️Red rice grains with each child’s picture on it. This encourages them to speak and say the name of their friends also to find their own photo.
❣️Big heart paper for children to draw and mark make which helps their fine motor skills as they create different strokes.
