Bookbug session – October 23

Our October family Bookbug session was a hit!

Our children and families enjoyed the songs, rhymes and stories that we explored and had fabulous singing voices!!

Our theme this month was “mini beasts” as the children have taken a real interest in the bugs they have been finding in our planters the the garden. We had an “Incey Wincey spider” that climbed up our guttering pipe then slide all the way down again, and sleeping butterflies that flew gracefully once they had wakened.

We shared a lovely story about some ants with cold bottoms…and to finish our session we had everyone’s favourite Bookbug resource….the Lycra! Those cheeky wiggly worms were bouncing off the Lycra and flying all over our playroom.

We are so thrilled that we can have our families in our centre and share our songs and stories with them…their feedback lets us know how much they enjoyed it!

“It was nice to get a chance to come into the nursery, and get a taste of the type of activities the children usually participate in. Laura was engaging and made the session fun! It was nice to see a mix of reading and “audience participation” :)”

“It was well organised. Not too big a group. Laura has a great connection with the children”

 

Music in the Early Years

Research has found that “musical activities stimulate development in every area of the brain” This is why MUSIC plays such a vital role in our Early Years.

Our ‘We love Rock & Roll day’ and ‘Festival’ gave us plenty of opportunity to explore instruments, sound, rhythm and beat. It even got us moving our dancing feet!
