Hi, looking for a new name for our version of a learning journey. There is nothing wrong with calling it that but I was wondering if there is something a bit more child friendly to call it? Any suggestions?

Hi, reviewing what can and cannot be given for snack. A lot of what we know as "unhealthy" or "unsafe" are from hearsay and I wondered if there is an approved list? I've tried googling but can't find anything.

Bit puzzled, please help lovely people!

Ohh shuggs , wrong section!! Could this be moved to the nursery section please??? sorry Right after looking at many planning ideas from this forum and seeing some very complicated ways of recording the information needed, even though they are very good, i have decided to try and develop a simple way. I might have missed some key ingredients by simplifying it but let me explain each step. Ok the 1st form we always use everyday whilst the children are in freeplay / child led activities.. this is a simple form for quick notes that we can record.
