"Understanding the world involves guiding children to make sense of their physical world and their community. The frequency and range of children’s personal experiences increases their knowledge and sense of the world around them."

Did you know that Glitter is made from aluminium and plastic and is classed as a Microplastics which is very problematic for the environment?
Studies have shown that glitter can become airborne and literally come down in the rain, landing in the sea and in the environment!
Today is Earth Day, a day to show your support for protecting the environment, so we thought today would be a great day to tell you that we are no longer using Glitter in any of our Forest House Nurseries! There are many alternatives to glitter which we can use in the nursery so that the children can still enjoy messy play and creative activities!
We are part of the Eco Schools Committee and creating a more eco friendly nursery is a big part if our plans! Removing glitter is just one of the many ways that we are working towards our eco schools award!

When serving food to babies and young children there are several things to consider with certain foods.
Fruit and Vegetables
🍇Small Fruits - ensure to cut all small and especially rounds fruit in to quarters
🍉Large Fruit - cut into slices instead of chunks
🍎Remove all pips and stones
🥕Vegetables - cut in to narrow batons, for younger children mashing or grating instead
🍊Remove the skin from all fruit and vegetables
Meat and Fish
🌭Sausages - always cut in half length ways, also you can peel off the skin to make them easier to chew and swallow.
🍖Remove all bones from meat or fish and cut into strips as thinly as possible. Also you should remove any skin and fat to make it easier to swallow
Cheese
🧀 Grate or cut cheese in to strips rather than chunks
Nuts and Seeds
🥜Nuts should not be served to children under 5 years old.
When Serving Nuts or Seeds, ensure to grate or chop
first.
Bread
🍞If not chewed properly, white bread can form a ball shape with a dough-like texture in the throat.
Try toasting white bread, or use brown bread instead. Bread, chapatis, naan bread and other breads should be cut into narrow strips.

At Copper Beeches we make our own play dough!
There are many reasons for this including:
✔️ Environmentally friendly-when made with natural ingredients
✔️ Maths Skills - weighing and measuring each ingredient needed
✔️ Social Development - making play dough can be an activity in itself where the children learn to work together as a team
✔️Bespoke Play dough - by making our own play dough children can decide what colour, fragrance and texture they want to fit in with their current topics and interests!
Our Preschool room is equips with a play dough making station so the children can make all the play dough they need!!
