Using music to further enhance our story kept the children engaged an interested. The children were then able to try out the keyboard exploring the varying sounds and backing beats. They particularly enjoyed a haunting sound that they found that they related to Halloween, later requesting the ‘scary sound’ again.
Many of the children have been telling us all about their exciting trips to see Paddington 2 at the cinema in the Christmas holidays. In response to their current interest, we made honey and marmalade sandwiches. The children worked out what they needed and then working in sequence to create their very own sandwich. It was very sticky!!! We ate them all up at snack time and there were lots of “yummys”.

The children were spellbound by a visiting Christmas fairy. She spread Christmas cheer and magical wishes with singing, dancing, and enlisting Natasha into performing as a sad snowman. The children enjoyed party food and were then joined by their families for a sing-a-long. We were then joined by another special visitor… Father Christmas on an early visit from the North Pole.
