What’s Been Happening At Our Nursery
Toddler`s Beach Cafe ☀️🍦⛵
A few of our toddlers have recently enjoyed trips to the beach so we decided to turn the roleplay area into a beach cafe, complete with an Ice Cream parlour and sandcastle building.
The children loved sharing their own seaside experiences. Well done Toddlers!

🌟 Big Dreams Start Small 🌟
At Monkey Puzzle, we believe every dream matters no matter how big, bold, or brilliantly imaginative. 🦸♀️🧑🔬👨🍳
Exploring children’s dreams and aspirations helps build confidence, spark curiosity, and show them that anything is possible. 💭✨
By encouraging little ones to imagine their future selves, we’re not just playing pretend, we’re planting seeds of possibility, ambition, and self-belief.
Let’s celebrate their ideas, nurture their passions, and remind them every day: you can be anything you want to be. 💖🌈

🦞 Lobster Adoption 🦞
Preschool class has adopted a Lobster from the National Lobster Hatchery in Cornwall. The children will be able to see photos as their lobster grows. Once their lobster is released, preschool will be able to look on the Hatchery website and track where it is along the coast.

🍧Ice Creams🍦
The Toddler room have been exploring different colours and textures this week. Today they used paint and sponges to create their favourite coloured ice cream!
This gave the children opportunities to make choices when choosing their coloured ice cream.
Well done Toddlers! 🍦🍧🍨

☀️ Marvin`s Adventures 🏖️
One of our Pre School children traveled with Marvin to Greece for a family holiday!
Leo was excited to sit with Marvin on the plane, share his breakfast and play on the slide! He even made sure Marvin was being kept cool by using a fan!
I wonder where Marvin will explore next....

🏃♀️P.E Sessions⚽
Once a week, the Pre School children each take part in a P.E session with Jake. During this session, they will practice different movements to help them progress in their physical development.
Here are some of the maneuvers that the children will try. Jumping in and out of hoops, hopping, balancing on one leg, balancing on the bikes, throwing balls through hoops and many more.
Well done Pre School! ⚽🏀🏉🚲🛴🏃♀️

🌈 June is Pride Month! 🌈
We’re celebrating all the colours of the rainbow and the beautiful message behind them! 💖💛💙
The Pride flag reminds us that it’s wonderful to be yourself and to show kindness and love to everyone around you. At Monkey Puzzle, we’re talking about friendship, inclusion, and what makes each of us special - all while enjoying some super colourful crafts and activities! 🎨👐✨
Because just like a rainbow, the world is brighter when everyone shines in their own way 🌟

Germ Experiment 🧫🧪
The children have been learning about germs and why handwashing is important. To support this learning we carried out a science experiment.
First, we sprinkled pepper on water in a bowl to represent germs. Next, the children covered a finger with soap and stuck it into the water. They were then able to see the pepper "germs" scatter from the soap.

Dear Zoo 🦁🐍🐒🐪🐸
One of the Toddlers favourite stories is Dear Zoo. To extend the children`s interest we set up an interactive activity, where children could wear animal masks and act out the story with puppets and small world animals.
They loved exploring the activity and talking about their favourite animals.
Well done Toddlers!
