Hello, has anyone got any other ideas for displaying the children's birthdays? I have previously done a train and trying to think of something different..... Also I am sure I have seen a picture of a display around the book Pants by Nick Sharratt, or am I dreaming it? Most of my last thought before sleep seem to be around ideas to fill up all my blank boards! I have search the all knowing google but found nothing any ideas? Thanks Sharon.

I want to make some general purpose dressing up clothes to stimulate role play. I have been thinking about some simple tabards in a variety of fabrics and perhaps some cloaks. I have an old ELC police tabard I could use as a pattern and I think a length of material with a gathered neckline should work as a cloak. Has anyone done something like this or do you have any other ideas that could work? I have access to a sewing machine but am not clever enough to make patterns for anything! As this will be a self financed project I want to keep costs down and I cant find any commercial patterns that appeal anyway.

I'm new to Reception and want to extend our outdoor provision. Our theme next week is trains. I've thought they could use big boxes to make a model train. We've got a wendy house that we could turn into a train station/waiting room. Has anybody got any more ideas for outside free flow activities linked to trains? Thanks

Hello Everyone, I've been driving myself mad trying to find the link to a website that shows good behaviour reminder strips for children and reminder cards for class display. I saw them when I was searching this site the other day and I forgot to save them to my memory stick. I'm also looking for the 'Learning through Play' leaflets that some kind person posted . I would be really grateful if you could let me know the links for these things. Many thanks for your help. Boogie xx

Hi everyone, I think I've just about got my head around planning for a reception class after planning for Yr 6 for last 3 years. However, I've got a bit of a mental block with songs to sing at carpet time and dance lessons. Our head is very keen for a creative development of our curriculum across the board but I just can't think how to begin. Do you have any good resources that you would suggest with songs and also something for dance and movement type activities.? I would be very grateful for help here. Thanks in advance Moisy

Hi, Just wanted to share some good news. I have been promoted to manager of one of the nurseries my boss owns. It is a small nursery with a team of 9 staf and around on average 32 children per day.

I am really interested in the exciting child -initiated themes that many of you are using (ie not starting with a topic that is pre-planned). This way you can captialise on children's current interestss, and this is what EYFS is recommending and I was wondering - do any of you pull these child initiated themes into some kind of mtp? Or how do you document this in your stp?
