Over the course of the week the children have celebrated Bookbug Big Giggle week by taking part in various reading opportunities in and around their local community.  Parents also took the opportunity to join in the children’s 3 Read to Nurturing Early Readers group, before setting of with their child to the local library.

The story which gave the some of the children the biggest giggle was The Dinosaur that pooped a planet by Tom Fletcher and Dougie Pointer.

We welcomed senior pupils from Calderhead High School and pupils from Dykehead Primary School who spent time reading with the children in the nursery.  It was lovely to see the Primary 6 pupils most of whom had attended the nursery in the past and were able to confidently share their experience of being a nursery child.  The pupils were a credit to the school, who will all make excellent buddies to our children leaving in June.

Residents from Rosehall Care Home enjoyed their visit from Bookbug too, where the children shared a few of their favourite stories.

We hope that Bookbug Big Giggle has demonstrated that books can be enjoyed anywhere at anytime.
