I can’t describe how amazing this was to watch unfold today, completely child led with no input from adults but the risk assessing, thought, talk, not to mention maths that took place, check out the symmetry on it was incredible! I could never plan for opportunities like this.

One of my favourite things to do in Nursery is to turn their play into stories. I write down what they say, adding in their settings to make a story, this is then added to the book and kept in the classroom. They are so lovely to read back together. #eyfs #earlyyears
