Wednesday 1st April
We will be holding a 'pop in and play' event for parents of Toddler and Preschool children from 3.30pm. There will be an opportunity for you to spend some quality time with your child completing some Easter art & craft, decorating a gingerbread Easter chick and some music to dance along to!
Please go to your child's group and you will be directed to the activities. You must remain with your own child at all times.
Although the event starts at 3.30pm, if you can't get here till later don't panic. Just show when you can, there will be plenty of resources! It would be helpful if you could let us know you are attending, but this is not essential.
Thursday 2nd April
Easter party day! All the groups will be completing Easter activities and having the usual fun and games. Weather permitting, there will be an outside Easter Egg hunt.
If you decide to make an Easter bonnet at home, please feel free to allow your child to wear it to show (off) to the other children and staff!
There will be a Easter party food box instead of the usual lunch.
Just like Preschool, Tots managed to get outside before the weather turned all winter-like again!

While it was still fine yesterday, Preschool went for a nice walk along the canal to the basin, enjoying the fresh air, exercise and some snack!

Although we didn't do any direct fundraising (after you were so generous for Children in Need) and asked you to donate directly to Comic Relief if you were able, that didn't stop us having some fun at Little Chums!
As well as the usual fun, games, activities, art and craft across the whole setting, Preschool even found time to go on a little 'Red Nose Hunt' in the garden!

We're sure you've seen your cards, paintings, handwritten messages and flowers from your children by now! All of the children worked really hard on them during the week!

There is also a short video of a child writing their own card on our YouTube channel here...
If you can spare a few pounds, we would encourage you to donate directly to Comic Relief by following the link below and clicking on the big red ‘DONATE’ button at the top!

The children in Toddlers did have great fun reading the The Gruffalo as well as creating some brilliant art work!
In Preschool they drew their favourite character, posed with their favourite books and enjoyed extra time in the reading corner!

Hopefully there are more dry and sunny days to come!

As part of the celebrations, the children dressed up in traditional clothes or something else Welsh/red, ate daffodils for breakfast (toast cut out in a flower shape) and Welsh cakes, took part in games and activities, practiced their Welsh language skills by speaking and singing, made Welsh flags, painted Welsh lady pictures and lots more! Every single table, sand tray and water tray was Welsh themed!

you celebrating St.David's Day / Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Sant this weekend? 
Why not practice some simple Welsh language, make Welsh cakes or enjoy a puzzle with your child?

With the warm pancakes was a choice of toppings including fresh lemon, banana, strawberries, blueberries, raisins and more. And maybe just a little bit of sauce as a special treat! The children were allowed to 'build' their own creations from the 'pancake station'!
