Lcp Foundation Stage Cd

Hi all, this is my first time on here and posting, so many apologies if I've done anything wrong. I'm desperately in need of assistance, my long standing CD with the favourite tidy up song from the lcp foundation stage resource pack (2002) has finally given up, does anyone know where I can obtain another one from? I have spoken to LCP and a very nice lady said she would have a look and see if she could find one for me but due to the age it may be tricky. As you all seem so knowledgeable on here I thought this would be a good place to start. Thanks in advance, any info is very greatfully received.

Hi, we had an ice cream parlour today as our role play using play dough and salt dough as the ice cream to go in the cones. Only problem is it went everywhere, inside and outside and we're a pack away setting! Help! Does anyone have any good tips for cleaning up dough? Do I wait til dry and scrape? Or is there a better solution? We're talking wooden floors and rubber matting. I'm a messy pup I know!

Hello All I wondered if anyone out there can help? For as long as I can remember we have used a badge machine to make pin badges for our colour coded family groups. We used to hire a machine and do our own- each child having one in the colour of their group. These have worked well because they help the child quickly establish which colour group they are in and help with name recognistion. Now the place we hire it from has closed down. We have looked into purchasing one but they are a bot out of our budget at the moment. What do others do for name badges- any ideas?

I have been subscribed to Nursery Education (online and print) for some time. I do like it's format in general because it has a big spectrum of articles (activities, professional development, news, posters, etc), but I have some doubts. I work with a Reception level class, which is the last stage of the EYFS... but which is usually connected to the 'schools' in the UK. So, when I read Nursery Education, even though the activities include the ELG, lots of times I feel that the magazine centers more towards Nurseries. I am subscribed to the Child Education online, but I have the impression that the Reception is not given that much of attention. So, as I have always felt... …

over the last decade i have had every excuse under the sun for parents being late - until today.... Mum turned up late and apologised - she had superglued her foot to her shoe apparently was trying to glue the sole back but didn't realise there was a hole in it!!!!! PMSL!
