We attended a training course yesterday that was Early Years Fun Stuff linked directly to revised EYFS. We have lots of fresh and exciting ideas for fun activities that all fall into the Early Years Foundation Stage framework. We are going to introduce some of the activities into June’s activity plan and we will see how successful there are. Ask us about the new Birthday Boxes a great idea for all the children to get involved in birthday celebrations, Mini-me pegs, Book of the week & 3 item story time.

We have a fantastic new educational pen at Buttercup Lane Childminders, Ask Lia to show you it. The pen is like no other it reads pictures and asks you to group items together using flashcards.
Its amazing and helps with Maths and English. We played with the pen for hours and we cant put it down.
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 & Understanding of the World, Personal Social & Emotional Development, Communication Language & Literacy , Problem Solving Reasoning & numeracy & well as Creatice Development all key areas of learning at Buttercup Lane Childminders in East Ardsley.
