Yesterday, Little Peanuts children tell me they enjoyed: playing with water; riding bikes; cutting and gluing; drawing teddy bears; dressing up; painting with car tyres and making animal footprints, then washing the animals afterwards!
What will we get up to next?

Little Peanuts Communication Superstars!
Our staff have all been working hard to gain their own communication and language qualifications and as a result Little Peanuts has been awarded Communication Friendly Setting status. I'm sure you'll agree that our staff are superstars!

The wind has brought us a fresh crop of pine cones to play with! They make lovely patterns in the sand. #LearningThroughPlay @EYTalking @EYTagteam #EYShare

Our Little Peanuts always have the freedom to explore in their own ways.
Today they have been mixing potions, but sometimes it becomes 'making a swamp' instead! #CuriousityApproach #LearningThroughPlay #UniqueChild #BirthToFiveMatters

We've been plant spotting in our Forest School - this orchid is our favourite! Amazing what's growing after just a year of not mowing. #forestschool #outdoorlearning #sustainability #ecofriendly

Infant mental health awareness week.
The first few years of life are crucial and giving children a great start in life is at Little Peanuts' core.

We've got a SNAPPY collection bin in our foyer if anyone in Wheldrake would like to call in and drop off wires or foil for SNAPPY.

[Karen @ThatFoilLady]

Did you know we also collect cables for @SNAPPYYork?🤔
Any obsolete tv and computer cables, kettle leads, phone chargers, wires cut off broken appliances, left overs from re-wiring projects, fairy lights... just drop them into one of our foil collection bins😊👍♻️
(No WEEE waste)

We focus on every child and their individual interests at Little Peanuts, letting them decide where they would like to take their adventure each day. #ChildLedLearning #allweathers #forestschool #outdoorlearning #TeamEarlyChildhood
