Meet the Newbie this January
This is Sebastian, he is our newest Little Seedling to join our childminding family. He is our first plant based baby, a happy little boy and we can’t wait to watch him learn and grow.
Homemade Breakfast Waffles
We made some amazing sugar-free waffles for our breakfast! Everyone took it in turns to whisk the eggs until they were light and fluffy. Then we added the wet ingredients into the dry. We used the hand mixer to make the ingredients into a thick batter. Tracie then poured the batter into the waffle maker and cooked until golden brown.
The waffles were absolutely delicious and got a thumbs up from everyone!
Christmas Gifts Handmade for their Mummies
The children all made amazing bath bombs for their mummies for Christmas. They got to choose the colour, glitter and fragrance. Then they helped Tracie mix the ingredients together, put into moulds and once set, make up the lovely cones.
All the mummies thought they were lovely.
Christmas Party
Two cheeky Elves came to see us and put us in the Christmas mood! We had fun and games and someone special came to see us!!
Making Our Christmas Tree
Can We Find Father Christmas?
The Little Seedlings spent the morning at Croxteth park looking for Santa!
This Elf said she didn’t know where he is! But she said “follow the path that leads to the story barn, he might be there!”
A Ray of Sunshine
Back in early spring, all the children sowed sunflower seeds. Most of them grew as tall as five feet! Eliza got a bit impatient waiting so long for her’s to grow and nothing happened! Everyone else’s sunflowers had grown and died, the garden started to look dull until…
This little gem made an appearance!
She’s only three feet tall but perfectly formed and attracting all the wildlife.
Poppy Craft
We made poppy paintings using recycled bottles as stamps.
Homemade Potted Herb Fence
The children loved helping Tracie make this herb fence. First we used the electric screwdriver to put screws in place to hold the pots to our fence. They have moulded holes on the back to make them easy to attach (from IKEA).
We then went over to the cold frame to pick the herbs we wanted to display. We chose Curry Plant, Rosemary, Lavender, Coriander, Chives and Mint. The whole fence was so pretty and fragrant the children spent the day going over and smelling them. We even had a bee visit us.
