Flying Start @ Duchy do a ‘Babbling Babies’ activity every day, these are activities from the ‘I Can Talk’ range that promote the babies babbling and exploring language and communication.

In this activity the babies were exploring the bricks, experimenting with building towers.

The adult guided their language and communication by making noises or counting for each brick balanced and then exclaiming when they all fell down!

This helped the children to learn to make sounds at each brick and the changes in sounds and volume when they all fell down!

If you would like a copy of any of the babbling baby activities to do at home just ask Holly.

Flying Start @ Saltash have been busy cooking and baking lots in the last few weeks!

Across the departments the children have been making, baking, cutting, chopping, self serving and the all important tasting!

From Healthy Pizza’s, to Biscuits…

Self serving their lunch…

And next on the menu is ‘Mother’s Day Stay and Play!’

On Friday March 13th 4pm-6pm Mummy’s are invited in for some craft and cooking activities and an Afternoon Tea!

Hope to see you there!

Flying Start @ Penryn’s toddler department and their parents have been experimenting!

The children invited their parents in to nursery to launch their new weekly Math’s Club…

And things got MESSY!!

 

The children helped to measure out ingredients with their parents, and their parents made guesses and predictions on what might happen.

Then the magic happened and we had eruptions, funny smells, mulit colours, and interesting liquids! 

Thankyou to all the parents who joined in!

Flying Start @ Saltash have been going out for Winter Walks!

Checking the weather, dressing up warm, remembering scarves and hats also and then getting out in the fresh air (oh and having time to pose for a photo)!

Although it has been very cold the children have enjoyed getting the fresh air and noticing how bright and sunny it also is.

On their walks they look for signs of other weathers… stomping in dew and frosty areas, searching for snow and of course finding lots of leaves, twigs and natural resources along the way!
