Hello everyone,

I hope you had a good Easter holiday and that you didn’t eat too many Easter eggs!

Today I feel like Little Miss Curious because I would like to know what you have been up to over the Easter holidays. I have done lots of jobs round the house and garden and eaten lots of chocolate. What have you been up to? Please reply to this Blog to let me know.

Which Mr Man or Little Miss do you feel like today?

For Movement today check out one of Gerry’s posts to see what he suggests and then for life-skills you can decide how you are going to help around the house today. How about a bit of Spring cleaning? How many jobs could you do?

For PE, check out Pedro’s yoga post, the perfect thing for stretching out your muscles.

Steve’s Maths posts should give you some ideas for Maths time or you could check out https://www.topmarks.co.uk/ for some online Math’s activities.

After a bit of a break come back for story time at 10.30. Today’s story is Twinkles, Arthur and Puss. A story about three cat owners and their cats and what happens when they go missing.

After story time, it’s time for Sign of the Day so check out Lorna’s posts for some more signalong signs.

Then it’s time for Art with Steve or David. Check out the Art section to see what lovely activities they have for you.

Have a nice lunch and then come back for Outdoor Learning. Hopefully Gerry will have something for you to do that helps you enjoy the sunny weather.

For Health and Well-being today why don’t you colour in a card or write a letter to someone you have not seen in a while? You could draw a picture of something you did over the holidays and write about what you have been doing. If you are feeling very creative you could try making a pull-out card like this one …

Have lovely days and remember to let me know what you are up to!
