Here at Monkey Puzzle Nursery, there has been a hive of activity this week as our children prepare something amazing and surprising for their daddies and male members of their families, All the children have taken part in this activity and have created some wonderful cards with dinosaur prints as their dads are awesome! Some with a trophy’s on as their dads are Number 1, some with superhero’s on as their dads are their hero’s and some with rockets on as they love their dads to the moon and back! The younger children were playing with small world figures in foam that represented different jobs that their daddies do and also looking at themselves in mirrors to see if they looked like their daddies. These are a lovely memento made for them by their children for them to keep😊 ... See MoreSee Less

Today at Monkey Puzzle we were lucky enough to have a visit from a couple of dentists (one of our lovely mum’s, many thanks), they showed us how to clean our teeth properly and how important it is to do this at least twice a day every day. They talked about what to expect when you visit the dentist, how it looks and smells.
All the children were then given some samples of toothpaste and toothbrushes to practice with along with some stationary for the children to use. Everyone got a sticker to show how well they all did 😊
Great visit, thank you very much for coming in to see us! ... See MoreSee Less
