Nursery Rhyme Play

June 9, 2019June 9, 2019 Amy2 Comments

For a while now I've been trying to figure out a way to bring Ellie's love of nursery rhymes in to her play. She sings all day long and knows so many nursery rhymes, more than I know and verses I've never even heard of. I've always been envious of those parents who have the… Continue reading Nursery Rhyme Play

#FathersDay I've written a little post over on the blog but just wanted to say I'm thinking of all those dad's who can't celebrate with their own children today. I wish none of us knew this pain, especially my husband, however I am remembering your babies with you this Father's Day Remember dad's hurt too! #dadsgrievetoo #fathersgrievetoo #fathersdayuk #happyfathersday #bereavedfather #bereaveddad #saytheirname #fathersdayafterloss #babyloss

Before we moved I would sit and look at the huge blue bush (no idea what it's called) pushed up against our conservatory window and imagined bringing our child up in that house, sitting with them in the exact same spot watching the insects on the leaves. I imagined having to remind them to be careful of the bees that loved the flowers. I would sit for hours in that spot listening to the rain, thinking of all the toys or tiny table that would soon replace the space I found most calming. I was devastated when we had to leave that house, our first real home, the place where Jason grew and the place he was born. I still miss that house terribly even though we are so happy where we are now. When we moved Luke made it his mission to find out what the flower was called and found a much smaller one at a local market. It sounds silly but instantly this house felt more like home. I needed to have something that was the same, something to remind me of the memories I created with Jason wriggling around inside me. Luke knew I never wanted to move but knew for our own mental health we had to. I wonder if its still there. #flower #garden #memories #lifeafterloss #lifeafterbabyloss #reminiscing #imissouroldhouse #babyloss #grief #survivingloss #bluebush #blueflowers #jasonsgarden #jason

A little puddle jumping after work resulted in having to buy new trousers and a pair of shoes when Ellie decided to kick the sprinklers 😂 Childhood is all about puddle jumping and getting soaked in the rain. #pbloggers #mblogger #motherhoodthroughinstagram #parentingafterloss #parenting #motherhood #toddlerlife #toddlerhood #lifeafterloss #mbloggers #parentingblogger #UKPblogger

Children are the future and I want the best future for my girl. Whatever she desires she will succeed at because I will always be there cheering her on. We have spent some time tonight using our @quirkandfoiblelondon mat and Ellie has really tried hard writing the numbers. She is really confident with numbers but less confident with letters although she knows her alphabet and recognises an E. #quirkandfoiblelondon #quirkandfoiblemats #learningmats #earlynumeracy #learningthroughplay #numberwriting #toddlerlearning #toddlerwriting #pbloggers #mblogger #motherhoodthroughinstagram #parentingafterloss #parenting #motherhood #toddlerlife #toddlerhood #lifeafterloss #mbloggers #parentingblogger #UKPblogger

For a while now I’ve been trying to figure out a way to bring Ellie’s love of nursery rhymes in to her play. She sings all day long and knows so many nursery rhymes, more than I know and verses I’ve never even heard of. I’ve always been envious of those parents who have the time to pre-plan activities for their babies and toddlers because it’s something I’ve always wanted to do with Ellie. We were gifted a nursery rhyme glove from the lovely @thelittlesensorybox and took the chance to create my own themed activities. There's a full blog (link in bio) showing the glove in action and some pretty embarrassing singing from yours truly 😂 #thelittlesensorybox #nurseryrhymes #5currantbuns #thelittlesensoryboxproduct #producttester #gifted #nurseryrhymeglove #learningthroughplay #playislearning #Playmatters #thisiswhyweplay #twinkl #eyfs #preschool #earlycounting #earlynumeracy #Playideas #toddlerplay #preschoolactivities #toddleractivities #pbloggers #mblogger #motherhoodthroughinstagram #parenting #motherhood #mbloggers #parentingblogger #UKPblogger
