Archive for the ‘Places of Interest’ Category

We have been to see Mr Copley again, this has got to be one of the best attractions in Yorkshire and its right on our doorstep. If you have a few hours to spare and your kids are bored you need to go and visit Mr Copley. We had loads of fun with the pumpkins and corn shotting, the farm shop is excellent and you will be amazed with the selection of goods on offer. I will be placing a link to them on the links section but follow this link <a href=”http://www.farmercopleys.co.uk”>Mr Copleys Farm</a>

This year is moving fast and there is no time to be sitting around, never a dull moment at Buttercup Lane Childminders, we have planned every week for the next 6 months and this includes lots of new places of interest to visit. Watch our Day out & Places to visit section for detailed day trips and great ideas for the perfect family days out.

School Holiday activities at Half Term  – Thursday the 16 Feb we all enjoyed an outing to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park.  There are over 60 Sculptures there all across the landscape and we walked for miles.
We did not get to spend a lot of time on one of the five indoor gallaries but we all had a fantastic time. The weather was cold but dry and we all wrapped up warm. A full report and pictures to come.

Well what can we say about Legoland, It huge and there is fun to be had in every inch of this wonderful place. We had two full days of total enjoyment even though it was very hard work. There is so much to see in such a short space of time. We did not even cover half of it but though the special offer we got made it very worth the while, we enjoyed it so much so that we are already planning next years visit to see the other half.

There will be a full detailed report and all the pictures from the trip. But the trip included lots of Physical Development, Knowledge &amp; Understanding of the World, Personal Social &amp; Emotional Development, Communication Language &amp; Literacy , Problem Solving Reasoning &amp; numeracy &amp; well as Creatice Development all key areas of learning at Buttercup Lane Childminders in East Ardsley.
