New resource! 🚨 The latest title in our Froebel Trust pamphlet series, Singing with Young Children is out now!

The new edition by Paula Lester, explores how children can be supported in their learning and development in early years settings and in the home, with the use of songs and rhymes. 🎶

Inclusive play equipment doesn’t just open up the park - it opens up the world.

It says:
🌍 You belong here
🤝 You matter
🎉 You have a right to play too

Every child deserves to see themselves reflected in their play spaces.

Fiona, our Play Pedagogy Lead, attended the Froebel Conference, it began with an inspiring keynote from Catriona Gill on seeing, unfolding, flourishing, being & belonging. She reminded us that when we create the right conditions children flourish & that inclusion isn’t a policy, it’s a way of seeing

Some of our older children want to develop their sewing skills so were practicing cutting their material, lining it up and setting up the sewing machine. Looking forward to seeing them develop more skills! @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social

A group of children observed the changes in our vegetable garden after the holidays. “It’s got bigger” DH, “there’s a turnip” AM, “what’s that green thing?” FM showing their curiosity to explore the changes and what had caused it. We began to harvest them, discussing how we knew they were ready.(KC)
