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 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.

Just been Trick or Treating with the Kids for Halloween – its great fun , Seeing all the great outfits that all the kids are wearing is fantastic, East Ardsley people are great and everyones loves the friendly community spirit and the warm greetings from all the families.
Thank you all.

We have been to see Mr Copley again, this has got to be one of the best attractions in Yorkshire and its right on our doorstep. If you have a few hours to spare and your kids are bored you need to go and visit Mr Copley. We had loads of fun with the pumpkins and corn shotting, the farm shop is excellent and you will be amazed with the selection of goods on offer. I will be placing a link to them on the links section but follow this link Mr Copleys Farm

We have just completed a training course for the Revised Early Years Foundation Stage 2012. More details to follow ….

Since the beginning of June here at Buttercup Lane Childminders we have been getting excited over this years Olympic Games and then there has been Euro 2012. We have had early morning fun in the sun with the football in the garden practicing our footballing skills and dare we say that some of the skills shown were better than some of the England skills on show over the last few weeks. We have also been following the Olympic Torch Travels and especially today as it came into Morley. We have a number of fun and educational yet physical activities planned for whilst the olympics are on for all our children. Not forgetting Wimbledon, so we are dusting off the tennis rackets, its going to be one full packed summer and we intend to enjoy every minute of it.

We have just been to Rothwell Park to test the new kites for this weeks outing and they are wonderful. Huge bright and they both look stunning in the bright daytime sun. We urge all families to pay attention to the sun and be aware of sun burn. Please make sure you have plenty of sun protection cream with you. Just 5 minutes in the mid-day sun can burn you so be careful, There will be a prize this week for the best sun hat so bring them along to Buttercup Lane Childminders in East Ardsley and lets see just how much fun we can have this week.
