Today we added a whole container that we have in our store room full of hair bands, jewellery and other girlie stuff to our choice of toys and activities for the morning.

This created incredible interest and discussion amongst a group of girls who then accessed the store room for dressing up clothes to add to the accessories that they had chosen. Unusual way round!

They asked for individual photographs and then one of them as a group.

After we have tidied up mid morning, we all sit on the carpet and read books while the snack is being made.

This is a social time where each child has the chance to interact with children who they don't normally play with. 

There is also an opportunity for the children make links with what they see in the books and then to contribute information or tell others about similar experiences that they have had.
