In response to the children talking about shopping we have set up a shop beside the home area. On Friday our new till, baskets and money arrived.
To link to our farm shop we have introduced farm animals to the sand tray.
Many children have been exploring the garden looking for minibeasts and in response to reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar we have introduced caterpillar resources to the dough area.
Soft bricks are now back in the construction area
Our lovely puppets from Where the Wild Things Are are now in the story area.

We have moved our planning wall to a bigger space to allow us to include work from the children. As stated in our Aims and Vision all our planning is responsive and recently our children have started working on their own planning sheets at group time. We use a traffic light system to allow the children to talk about what they like, dislike and what they would like to change. Please have a look at our new planning wall next time you visit the Nursery!
