Don’t be afraid to ….
*Get on the floor and play
*Be and look a bit silly

You’re never too old to play & have fun!

It’s so important for adults to model movements and have fun too. Don’t be embarrassed just go for it! Just like we do when we are reading our book colours with children!

Wishing you a happy National Libraries Week. To mark this week & all the amazing work our libraries do, we’ve sent out a free copy of our book ‘Colours’ to 40 local libraries! We hope that children can now enjoy the fun action story through their libraries too!

Practice, practice, practice.
Repeat, repeat, repeat
Try again, try again, try again
Redo, redo, redo
Copy, copy, copy
Children love to repeat things. Often it’s the adults around them that get bored first NOT the children, it’s how they learn and consolidate skills!

[Storycises @Storycises]

Here’s our Tuesday tip! ALWAYS gross before fine! Children need to learn, practice and consolidate a wide variety of gross motor skills before they can easily learn and refine their fine motor skills. So when teaching, guiding, enabling and scaffolding remember BIG before small!
