The boys and girls in the nursery have been very busy making things to sell at the Christmas Fair. Aiden painted a Christmas tree green. Aaron has been enjoying playing in our small world area Santa has moved into the house with his reindeer. Everyone is enjoying ‘working’ in Santa’s Grotto dressing up as Santa, Elves and Reindeer and delivering presents in large sacks – maybe next week the nursery children will learn how to wrap presents and can help their mummy and daddy at home to do this 🙂
