I have been loving sharing with you on Instagram some of our recent set ups. It's been great to have your feedback and I look forward to sharing lots more with you over the coming weeks and months.
It is a real joy to me to be building a fabulous community of people who are passionate about children's play. In our closed group on Facebook (come and join in the fun here) I was lucky enjoy to start talking to a lovely lady called Hayley. Hayley has been really busy setting up some brilliant set ups for the children and today she is with us to share a Dinosaur Tuff Tray. Welcome Hayley!

Owl Babies Sensory Small World


I was enjoying my breakfast this morning. Nice and warm inside. We currently have a snow storm hitting us so schools have been closed today. I don't think I will ever get fed up of snow days! It's so exciting getting that notification to stay indoors and keep safe, school is closed. The alarms go off, heating gets turned up a few notches and you get to enjoy an unexpected snow day! Yipeeee. 
It was when I was eating my breakfast I thought about this post I am sharing with you today. It was an activity we enjoyed a couple of weeks back but I suddenly remembered I hadn't shared it on the blog! Woops! If you follow me on Instagram you will have seen this already. Today I am sharing a Sensory Small World inspired by the children's book Owl Babies. 


Owl Babies Sensory Small World


Owl Babies was published in 1992. Written by Martin Waddell and illustrated by Patrick Benson. It tells the story of three owlets perched high in a tree, deep in the woods. They wake to find the forest in darkess and their Mother is nowhere to be seen. They are overjoyed when she returns after a night flight of hunting. It's a timeless story that even the youngest of children enjoy. If it isn't part of your book collection - now is time to change that -

I am over the moon to have Laura Kerrison back today. She has previously shared some brilliant Rainbow Fish activities and today she is here to share a Dinosaur Tuff Tray the children have been enjoying at their Nursery. Do you remember the Dinosaur Swamp we shared with you last Summer?

We have been having quite a bit of rain as of late. It has provided some fabulous fun for our outdoor play at our setting in Lodge Cottage Nursery, Norfolk. The Tuff Tray lay on the grass and the children were fascinated to see it filling up pretty quickly. The rain splished and sploshed into the tray.
We got the children ready and we all went outside to take a closer look. The shower had past by at this point.
