Just wondering how much or how little planning everyone currently does? I am still on my search for the holy grail of planning formats, have tried sooooo many over the years. Anybody who has recently had an Ofsted, I would be interested to hear if they took any notice of the planning at all? Please can you share with me what you are all doing.

I have a group of children (mostly boys) who have suddenly shown a real interest in imaginative role play games. We do not have a role play area as such, I move the home corner in and out as required, we currently have a den in response to observing them wanting to hide under tables the whole time. I would like to go with the idea of a deconstructed role play area and prop boxes. If you do this, please can you give me some ideas of how and what you use to resource this. Many thanks.

Ofsted have launched a Facebook page to help childminders with the registration process. The page, designed to help childminders navigate the application and registration procedures, has been launched as a 3 month trial. Links to useful documents and frequently asked questions are all addressed on the page. You can access the trial page from here.

Hi everyone, I wondered if I can pick your brains! Wanting to use picket fences as internal room dividers, but cannot seem to find any that are rustic wood looking. If people have this type of thing, where did you get it from please? Thanks, Victoria
