Pumpkins at the ready ๐งก
..
A pumpkin patch role-play provides numerous benefits for our children.
..
Including developing social skills through cooperation and communication, boosting language development with new vocabulary.
..
Also enhancing mathematical understanding by counting, sorting, and weighing pumpkins.
..
So much learning to be had, whilst playing & having fun โจ

One of our favourite seasonal activities here at Playbox ๐๐
..
Giving children a bag to collect autumn treasures provides multiple benefits, including promoting a shared parent-child activity that strengthens family bonds.
..
Fostering an appreciation for nature and the autumn season, developing practical skills like observation and sorting, and encouraging creativity by using the collected items for further learning and play with their peers here at the Setting.
..
An activity loved by all, why not get ready to hand these out, just in time for half term.
..
Thank you @earlyyearsoutdoor โจ

What a difference! โจ
..
..
After another productive half term, we have our beautiful new flooring.
..
..
Natural-looking floors in early years settings offer several benefits, including a cleaner, healthier environment for children, promotion of physical development, and a connection to nature.
..
..
Furthermore, natural floors encourage floor play, which is crucial for developing gross motor skills, balance, and sensory awareness.

World Book Day 2025 ๐
..
So much fun was had here at Playbox Nursery!
..
The children really enjoyed dressing up and seeing our lovely staff in their ‘Under the sea’ theme dress up ๐
..
World book day encourages children to explore new books, engage in creative activities, and develop a deeper appreciation for literature.
..
These experiences lay the foundation for strong reading skills and a lifelong passion for learning and the love for books.
