We wish you all a very Happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year !!
We have had some festive activities on the agenda throughout December, they will be finished with our annual Christmas visit to Sundown. Please see the link for details on the whole Sundown experience, great fun especially at Christmas. Other activities include , Yule log making, Decoration Making, Christmas card making, paper chains, wrapping gifts, decorating the tree and of course making the christmas lists.
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.
Well what can we say about Legoland, It huge and there is fun to be had in every inch of this wonderful place. We had two full days of total enjoyment even though it was very hard work. There is so much to see in such a short space of time. We did not even cover half of it but though the special offer we got made it very worth the while, we enjoyed it so much so that we are already planning next years visit to see the other half.
There will be a full detailed report and all the pictures from the trip. But the trip included lots of Physical Development, Knowledge & Understanding of the World, Personal Social & Emotional Development, Communication Language & Literacy , Problem Solving Reasoning & numeracy & well as Creatice Development all key areas of learning at Buttercup Lane Childminders in East Ardsley.
