In January, we are excited to welcome the children back to nursery after the festive season, eager to explore a variety of engaging activities. One of our highlights this month is the New Year's dragon finger painting, where children can unleash their creativity while learning about the cultural significance of dragons in celebrations.
Additionally, we are introducing our delightful fake snow sensory play, allowing the little ones to feel the texture and experience the joy of winter, all while staying warm indoors. This activity not only stimulates their senses but also promotes imaginative play as they build and experiment with their 'snow' creations.
To complement our winter theme, the children will enjoy making snowman crafts. This hands-on activity encourages teamwork and problem-solving as they design their very own snowmen using a variety of materials. We believe these activities will not only be fun but also foster creativity and learning through play!
In February, we are excited to celebrate National Storytelling Week at the beginning of the month. This special event allows us to immerse ourselves in the wonderful world of stories, sparking imagination and creativity among our nursery children. We will be inviting parents and local storytellers to share their favourite tales, encouraging children to listen, engage, and even create their own stories!
In addition, we will not forget to celebrate our local community! We plan to organise activities that will help the children understand the importance of community helpers and the roles they play in our lives. From visiting local shops to inviting community members to speak to the children, we hope to create a rich learning experience that connects them to their immediate surroundings.
Overall, February promises to be a month filled with creativity, exploration, and fun. Through storytelling and community engagement, we aim to enrich the children's understanding of the world and the wonderful narratives that connect us all.
In March, our nursery will be bustling with exciting activities designed to engage and inspire the little ones. We are particularly focusing on music and rhythm, where children can explore different sounds and movements. This engaging approach not only nurtures their creativity but also supports their physical development as they learn to move their bodies in time with the music.
Alongside our musical activities, we are thrilled to announce that we will be tending to our outdoor garden. The children will have the opportunity to get their hands dirty while learning about plant growth and the environment. This hands-on experience will foster a love for nature and teach them essential skills such as patience and responsibility as they nurture their plants.
We believe that March will be a fantastic month for our nursery, filled with joy, movement, and learning. By combining rhythmic activities with gardening, we aim to provide a holistic experience that promotes both physical and emotional development, helping our children thrive in all aspects of their growth.
In April, at our Nursery, we are excited to dive into a month filled with engaging activities centered around animals and their habitats. The children will be exploring various ecosystems, learning about the different animals that live in them, and understanding how they interact with their environments.
Throughout the month, we will incorporate fun and informative activities, such as storytelling sessions featuring animals, arts and crafts that depict different habitats, and interactive games designed to teach the children about the characteristics of various species.
As we celebrate Easter during this period, we will also be hosting a range of festive activities. The children will have the opportunity to participate in egg hunts, create their own Easter crafts, and enjoy themed storytelling that ties together the joy of the season with our animal-focused curriculum.
This combination of animal education and Easter festivities promises to make April a vibrant and enriching time for all our little learners, fostering their curiosity and love for nature while having lots of fun!
In May, our nursery is excited to focus on a vibrant theme centred around colours. We will engage the children in a variety of activities that allow them to explore and express their creativity through colour. One of our key projects involves creating single colour collages, where children will use different materials in one specific colour to bring their artistic visions to life.
To enhance their understanding of colours, we will encourage the little ones to identify and select various shades, helping them develop their colour recognition skills in a fun and interactive way. These collage creations will not only foster their fine motor skills but also encourage conversation about their favourite colours and the emotions they evoke.
In addition to our colour-themed activities, we are thrilled to introduce the excitement of funfairs to our nursery curriculum this month. The children will learn about the different attractions typically found at a fair, sparking their imagination and curiosity.
As part of our funfair activities, we will also incorporate performances where the children can try their hand at face painting and balance exercises. This will not only be a fun experience but also a fantastic opportunity for them to build confidence as they showcase their skills to their friends.
Overall, May promises to be a month filled with colourful creativity and lively performances, ensuring that our nursery children have a memorable and enriching experience as they learn through play.
This June, Bunnies Daycare will be exploring two exciting themes: "Under the Ground" and "Under the Sea." These themes will encourage curiosity, sensory exploration, and creativity while supporting children's development in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).
