🌟 School Readiness Stay & Play! 🌟 Speech and Lan 🌟 School Readiness Stay & Play! 🌟 

Speech and Language Workshop today! 🗣️✨ Startwell 

We explored the “Talking with Your Little One” guidance from Speech and Language UK with our wonderful parents during Stay & Play. It was fantastic to see so many families join us and engage so positively in the session!

Together, we discussed practical tips and simple strategies to help support and encourage children’s speech and language development at home. 💬💛 Parents being a role model for their child/ren and being Suzy Startwell.

The children had a brilliant time too — enjoying nursery rhymes, interactive activities, and mark-making opportunities designed to build communication skills in fun and meaningful ways. 🎶🖍️
Thank you to everyone who attended and made it such a successful session! 🌟

Startwell Play & Stay ✨ Startwell Active Azra to Startwell Play & Stay ✨ Startwell 

Active Azra took at Stay & Play last week! 🌟

We had a blast keeping our "belly buttons moving" with our favorite Startwell character. From jumping in and out of hoops to mastering the art of the bean bag toss, our little ones (from 10 months to 2 years!) were non-stop energy, exploring all of the equipment. 

We also had a Home Safety and accident prevention Workshop.
The children practiced their kitchen skills! 🍎 Using child-safe knives, they worked on peeling bananas and slicing fruit.

A huge shoutout to our new parents for jumping right in—especially for learning how to slice fruit into oblong shapes to keep snack time safe and choke-free! 🍌✨
