Nursery News
Here’s what’s been happening across our nurseries
Ladybirds at our Halifax nursery
The children found lots of ladybirds on a bamboo tree in our sensory part of the garden. They were fascinated and it led to lots of amazing questions from the children and they all learnt some wonderful ladybird facts … who knew there are 5000 different species of lady birds and can live between 1-2 years!
Cause and Effect
The children in our baby room have been experiencing cause and effect sticking cotton wool on sticky tape. Developing cause and effect is important as your baby learns that their behaviour and actions result in a response. This helps your child to develop early communication and cognition skills, which are necessary to understand the cause and effect relationship.
Rice and Pasta Play
Spring Cottage's babies room have been exploring the qualities of rice and pasta play. Children's imaginations are sparked when they have the opportunity to play with tactile materials like pasta and rice. They make their own discoveries and this stimulates their curiosity and develops knowledge too.
