Father's day

For Fathers day this year, I decided on a very simple card but hand prints usually go down well. This was easy then to do even with the babies.




but rather than just adding happy fathers day to the inside I found some poems about Dads and printed out some, then the children choose which one they wanted to put in their card. They enjoyed listening to the different poems (there were several) and trying to decide which ones their Dads would like best.

Sensory Bottles

We had one very wet afternoon during half term, so I decided this was a good time to make our sensory bottles for the littleones. The children had a lovely time deciding what they were going to put in the bottles, liquid or dry, quiet or noisy ect and also thinking about what the babies might like.



The shredded colour paper bottle had some rice added to it so it makes  a lovely sound.


Found a good use for those seeds that are past there use by date, the children said they didn't want to add too many as they were worried it would be too heavy for the babies to lift, which was a really sweet thought :)


Then we had mixture of bottles, bottle 1 glitter and water, bottle 2 glitter water and baby oil and bottle 3 glitter, baby oil, water and food colouring.
