Birthday Boards
by Guest- 11 replies

Don't know about you but our birthday board is looking sad and dull.....and doesn't really get much attention from the children. We always celebrate children and adults birthdays in the setting but our birthday board doesn't have any sparkle. I'm thinking of getting rid of it completely and doing a 'birthday book'. This will have a seperate page for each month and a picture of each child & adult who's birthday falls in that month......inc name and date of course! Do you all have boards? or has someone already do a book? mrsb

Snack Time

I am in a small setting. at the moment children sit down together and have snack. I would like to introduce a rolling snack time as I am fed up with packing away everythimg just as the morning reaches a peak. this routine was adopted when I arrived and the parents are very happy with it. I just don't like the way children have to put everything away and drop what they are doing . How could we manage this with only 2 members of staff, as one member would have to supervise the snack so that it is shared out equally, leaving the other to supervise play and observations. have you got any good ides on how i can introduce this without making too many changes and do …

Hi Does anyone know of a children's book for 3 and 4 years olds about boats or preferably pirates that either rhymes or has repetitive phrases that the children can join in with? I'm trying to think up an observation for my FD assignment based on the chiildren's interests, where I can demonstrate 'wot' I've learnt! Thanks

Hi hope someone can help, We have been saying for sometime that we want to buy a piece of equipment to help develop upper body strength e.g rope or trapeze handles on an A frame, a rope walk or something similar. Before we do I just thought I would see if anyone has used a good company, or has bought something that looked good in the brochure but was not as good as they hoped in real life!! Thank you

Mobile Hand Washing Unit

Hi Yesterday we raised £1267.68 from our Christmas Raffle - an absolutely amazing amount. Now I would really like to spend this money wisely and we need to replace the current hand washing units which are white/plastic/similar to something like the Krypton factor to set up (especially when you're in a rush!)/and difficult for the children to use. So .... I have found these http://www.mobilesink.com/News-OdysseyJunior.html and wonder if anyone has these and how they find them. Would be really grateful for comments before I spend loads of money! Thanks very much

Does anyone know the second (or more) verse to I hear Thunder. We can't remember it, we think it starts something like 'grey clouds are forming' Does anyone also have any other weather songs we could use.
