Guest Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Well it's that time of year again and as usual I've left it till the last minute! Am thinking of getting this den for the new building, has anyone got it? Just wanted a review or two as am experiencing some resistance from staff!!!
AnonyMouse_5970 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 We don't have that exact one but something very similar from The Consortium. We have used ours for lots of things - for a long time it was a cosy space in our book area and now its part of our role play. We don't have ours quite as covered up as the one in the picture - ours didn't come with a cover so we use various pieces of fabric such as old curtains. I would highly recommend them, they're very versatile. Beehive
Guest Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Thank you Beehive. I just feel all our money is going on build and groundwork so just want something shiny and new for the children with a bit of a wow factor! It will be some time before we can buy any larger resources and don't want to waste the vouchers on lots of smaller bits1
AnonyMouse_13453 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 wow! you must have got a lot of vouchers! We only managed about 470 this year
Guest Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 wow! you must have got a lot of vouchers! We only managed about 470 this year I banked 2000 last year and got over 3000 this year! Very please Not much in the way of consumer choice where we are so most shop at Tesco1
AnonyMouse_8282 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 We gave up collecting when I worked out the man hours counting were more than the total value of vouchers!!!!! we have a lot of shopping choices here
AnonyMouse_21338 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 I counted all our vouchers (2,500), then tried to find things to ' spend' them on, then realsed we had to bundle them into 100's , so recounted them all again, then lost the postal info.....suffice to say i still havent sent them, tommorow is sports day and leavers party , tues im at hosp all day, so i may be able to find the postal info on weds......all this for a set of brushes, wild animals and a bit of craft stuff !!! I think ive missed the deadline, and now im not sure where the order form is aaarrrggggg!!!!!!!
AnonyMouse_7120 Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 We didn't,t even bother this year, we just passed them to the school, our children soon get to use whatever they purchase and it's such a hassle for what we end up being able to get.
