Play & Learning Sessions

This week sees the start of our series of structured "guided play" sessions thanks to the funding support from the Lloyds TSB Foundation for England and Wales. 

We start with two sessions aimed at tactile and creative play inspired by Halloween and Bonfire Night.  Our activities will include food tasting - but only if you can pick it up with chopsticks!; splatter painting - aprons provided!; mini beast hunts .... but in jelly!; craft masks and bags to take home.

Posters are displayed around the toy library and we have leaflets to tell you about the other sessions leading up to Christmas.  We are extending the taster sessions we did last term on schema, treasure baskets and heuristic play to enable you to explore further the whys and wherefores of children's learning through play.

Do come along and support these sessions which are being run during our normal play times - this seems to suit the majority of our members having tried different days and times last term.  Normal stay and play charges apply.

Many thanks for your support
