I've done away with 'playtime' this year (I mean joing Y1 and Y2 for playground time, except at lunch play) for all the reasons people have discussed on here before. I wonder what fantastic ideas people might have for very active things for children to do independently outside. My TA is concerned that the children should be having playtime as a chance to 'let off steam', 'have a runaround' etc rather than being focussed and 'quieter' all the time.

Welly Help!

Hi, How does everyone cope with their storage of wellies? Our outdoor area is predominantly grass so at this time of year wellies are required. As always space is limited!! Have looked on eBay and the web for welly storage ideas but they are all posh wooden / metal things that are horrendously expensive. Have considered the big plastic buckets in their house teams, has anyone achieved something similar? Today was a nightmare - I had shoes / carrier bags / wellies strewn all in the vicinity of the door, encroaching on the music area and mark-making areas - it wasn't a pretty sight!! Thanks everyone.

Hi just wondering if people can share any good independent activites for children to engange in when teacher is focused, i am in Reception. e.g. the children seem to be board with the table top activities i put out e.g. have had all the construction toys out, tap tap, etc. but want exciting things for CLL and Numeracy. We have things like Nursry rhyme sack, 'pretend' folder lap tops, magnetic letters, threading, WB and pens etc etc but they seem uninspired does anyone have any good activities that they can share. Thanks Natasha

We are trying to revamp our music provision. Does anyone have any great ideas that have worked well? I had wondered about doing a box of instruments for each type of weather? We have a large bandstand area outdoors but it's just not used that well. Any ideas would be fab. Thanks
