Story
Ruby’s Worry by Tom Percival
This warm Picture Book is a great story for your child’s emotional needs. All children have worries and feelings of anxiety at times. It’s a story your child can relate to in dealing with the sense of worry. In this book, the young girl called Ruby develops anxiety which starts small but over time becomes bigger and robs her of happiness. Until she discovers that by talking to someone helps her worry go away. An excellent book for every parent to read to their child and tackle a familiar emotional feeling.

Numeracy
Money
Coins game is a money game which introduces children to coinage in British, Australian, American and Euro currencies. The currency defaults to British, but can be changed by clicking on the flags. The game is designed for 4-10 year olds.
It has three game modes. The first activity, Sorting, helps children to recognise the different coins. The second, Ordering, involves arranging the coins from lowest to highest values. Thirdly, the Counting game has eight different ability levels where children count the amounts of money on a piggy bank. It can help to improve children’s accuracy in counting money.
