We had a suprise for the last hour or so today for the children .. Buttercup Lane’s very own Mr Tumble ‘East Ardsley Style’ of course.

Not quite sure who had the most fun the children, the parents or Mr Tumble himself but it rounded off the day nicely.

The fun has not stopped there and since loading the photograph onto the Pacey Website we have been inundated with appearance requests.

We all had such a fantastic time at Autumns Buttercup Lane birthday party, please see all the pictures loaded onto your facebook profiles.
Pass the parcel was just the start and we have no idea how many times we have sang Happy Birthday today, there was roll with the coloured giant soft ball, sing-along-abirthday, pin the tail, dance-a-thon, jump for joy, and lots and lots of great party games. ( ask the childrens about the cat playing guitar )

Autumn has gone out this evening for another birthday celebration, she will be a very tired lady indeed tomorrow.

Who is next for a birthday party at Buttercup Lane Childminders, come on Girls and Boys the first one to come to Karl and tell me which one has the next birthday will get a very special present. !!

We had a fantastic day out today at Temple Newsam Park, The Weather was beautiful for February and there were loads of people there enjoying the facilities.

Along with the long walk, we went Tree Root Climbing, Duck and Swan Spotting, We played Find the Penguin and Pig and this kept them entertained for hours until Karl let on just exactly where the penguin was.  The swings and fire mans pole slide was every bodys favourite and we all had a very good time.

We have been having lots of fun this week seeing the new additions at Temple Newsam, we have seen the white donkey and all the lambs and piglets. Everyone had lots of fun in the fresh air and we all walked for miles. Not sure how their little legs managed it, at this rate we are all going to be super fit for the summer.

We have a fantastic new educational pen at Buttercup Lane Childminders, Ask Lia to show you it. The pen is like no other it reads pictures and asks you to group items together using flashcards.
Its amazing and helps with Maths and English. We played with the pen for hours and we cant put it down.
