This week the children were in full Christmas swing! They chatted to their friends about what presents they are hoping to receive as well as what they would be doing for Christmas. The children engaged in more singing, stories and drawing (with some children deciding to write their Christmas lists).

Everyone’s drawings seemed to be Christmas related with two special friends drawing a Santa together. Everyone is an artist no matter your age!

As engaged as the children were, there was a sudden commotion outside. The children (and our older friends) raced to the window to see what was happening. It was a very brazen squirrel playing in the garden. Everyone was amazed and watched as the squirrel happily searched for food. He even spotted us at the window and really wasn’t bothered by our presence.

We took some very special wooden people with us and everyone was asked if they could draw themselves. The results were amazing! By the end of the day, we had a whole group of wooden figures adorning the mantlepiece.

After all the fun and games, it was time to head back to nursery but the children didn’t want too! They wanted to stay and play. It won’t be too long before we will be back. Goodbye for now!
