Stephen observed recently that some of their children could be a bit up and down with their listening skills and they could get quite distracted at times….

Not that our children are obsessed or anything!! The talk has all been about holidays in Free-Flow recently, either ones that have been taken, or ones that are upcoming… So passports were found, suitcases packed and the runway prepared as our first Jolly flights began to take off…… Such excitement, imagination and creativity!! We love …
Adventures with friends and dressing up that never ends… what will you imagine and become today?!?! We can’t wait to see….

Couldn’t resist gathering this lovely bounty from their stunning grounds as I know they’ll make an excellent addition to our mud kitchen… I even checked with reception first before collecting and think it officially went down as their most random request …
During outdoor play recently Free-Flow really used their imaginations and combined the hula hoop and ball they had found and did something a little bit different to their usual preference for spinning or kicking!! Stephen was requested and soon instructed about EXACTLY what was required of him… he then stood with the hula hoop whilst …
It was concentration faces at the ready in Cheeky Monkeys recently as the room are currently loving building and stacking! So Elise thought her little ones could do with a further challenge of some slightly trickier things to stack and balance than your ‘bog standard’ cubes!! She went on a hunt and returned with some …
With a push from a friend I will go far!! We are loving playing with the ride on/push along vehicles at the moment and we take turns and share well whilst whizzing and honing our physical skills, control, core strength, coordination, balance and spatial awareness!! BEEP, BEEP… coming through!!!! Xxxx
