A few of our fabulous tuff trays from last week!
Our team love to set up exciting and inviting tuff trays for the children, especially if they can use natural resources such as flowers. 🌹 Each tuff tray has a learning intention behind it, based on the childrens personal interests, along with their own individual next steps. 👣
Fun facts about tuff trays:
1. Tuff trays don't just have to be for messy play! 🎨
2. They are moveable, so can be used on the floor, on a stand or on the table tops.👍
3. Tuff trays can be used for any age group, including for our younger babies during tummy time. 👶🏼
4. Historically, tuff trays were called builders trays due to builders mixing materials on them!🏗
Can you guess the intent behind each of these tuff trays?

Yesterday, the discoverers room went on a little trip to Tesco to buy some satsumas to have with their snack! 🍊
The children explored lots of the different fruits and vegetables, pointing, saying colours and attempting to say the names. The children were delighted to take turns to use the self checkout and found using the contactless payment card so funny! "Beep beep" said the toddlers!💳
Once back at the Nursery, the toddlers begun to show such wonderful independence by peeling their satsumas and helping to prepare their own snack! Food always tastes better when you have bought and prepared it yourself👍🏻
🏠Home learning prompt - Can you support your child to become more involved in the kitchen by setting up opportunities for them to prepare their own snacks? This could be peeling/chopping fruit, spreading butter onto their bread or mixing ingredients together when cooking! 👩🍳👨🍳

On Tuesday, the Explorers went back to the park with even more friends! They looked for fallen leaves and Autumn treasures. They ran around the park, discovered the slide and did some excellent turn taking! 🍁
They were intrigued by the vehicles driving past and lot's of them begun to say "beep beep!" We waved "hello" to the friendly passers-by and even saw a postman delivering some post!✉
The babies were very tired after their busy and fun morning out!💤 We cannot wait for our next adventure out...we wonder where we will go next!☺

On Friday, some of our pre-schoolers went out for a walk to collect some Autumn treasures for their creative activities. They discussed road safety on the way there, and were really cautious of the cars and the zebra crossing, showing excellent understanding of the road safety rules! 🚦🚸
When they arrived they discovered not only lots of leaves...but a see-saw! Some of the children (and adults) simply had to have a go☺️
When the children got back to Nursery, they wanted to show their friends the leaves and flowers they had collected and got busy creating some Autumnal masterpieces! 🍁
