50 fantastic ideas for seasons

_______________ The 50 Fantastic Ideas series is packed full of fun, original, skills-based activities for Early Years practitioners to use with children aged 0-5.

Each activity features step-by-step guidance, a list of resources, and a detailed explanation of the skills children will learn.

Creative, simple, and highly effective, this series is a must-have for every Early Years setting. Not only is the changing of the seasons an ideal time for children to focus on their understanding and exploration of the world around them, it is also a fantastic opportunity to encourage them to learn new skills or consolidate existing ones, using 'seasons' as a focus.

The activities in this book support practitioners in exploring and reinforcing key learning around Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.

Although the ideas are linked to specific seasons, the concepts and skills are transferable to other seasons or activities.

Suitable for Early Years practitioners and parents, this book is packed full of original ideas to inspire both adults and children. There are activities for both indoor and outdoor inspiration as well as some that can be done in both.

Each activity also features guidance on how to extend the learning further as well as an overview of some of the things the children will be learning while they are participating. Regardless of whether you are freezing in the winter snow or melting in summer sun there will be something here to inspire!
