This week at The Children’s House we will be doing all sorts of fun things like talking about hobbies & careers, dressing up, baking, & having a Teddy Bears’ Picnic!! We will be talking to the children about what they like to do in their spare time – e.g. art, sports, imaginative play, yoga, construction, drama – & talk about how important it is to explore all these things as this is how they may find their talents & end up one day working in it, as well as it being so important for relaxation & unwinding, & therefore having a positive impact on mental health.

We will be making scented playdough & matching different sets of it, a really lovely sensorial activity, & making cupcakes later in the week. On Friday the children can bring in their favourite teddy or toy, & we will have a teddy bears’ picnic with them!

Teddy Bears’ Picnic

If you go down to the woods today,
You’re sure of a big surprise.
If you go down to the woods today,
You’d better go in disguise!
For all the bears there ever there was,
Will gather there for certain because,
Today’s the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic!

Picnic time for teddy bears,
The littel teddy bears are having a lovely time today,
Watch them, catch them unawares
And see them picnic on their holiday.
