Miss Carson got a teddy for Christmas which she brought into nursery to show the children.  They named him Tumble Ted because he has a bowtie like Mr Tumble.  Everyone was very surprised when he reappeared in nursery dressed as a superhero and carrying a map, which he had used to find his way back here.  This allowed us to do some mapwork and take on a superhero theme.  The role play area is now a Superhero den and the boys and girls are enjoying dressing up and having adventures.  They turned themselves into superheroes for a new wall display and are sharing their knowledge about famous characters with staff.

Tumble Ted continues to surprise us.  Today we got an email from him with a selfie he’d taken as he packed for a holiday.  He was looking for suggestions of places to visit and the children thought maybe Sandyhills, a caravan trip to Legoland or Australia might be fun destinations for him.  He is going to keep in touch via email and

let us know where he ends up.  If your child would like to email him from home then his address is tumbleted40@yahoo.com!
