Book of the Week 5 September 2022

Autumn by Ailie Busby  

There is something special about each season of the year, wherever we live in the world. Follow the children in this book as they discover and explore the unique character of autumn, through indoor and outdoor play. Sensory, detailed and child-centred, this is the perfect introduction for young children to the cycles of the year.

We are exploring autumn with the children this week. The days are getting shorter and the leaves on the trees are changing colour.

We are using some of our windfall apples in our play, doing some baking, making apple cake and also seeing what pictures we can make with them using paint.

We are going on a walk to explore what changes autumn brings and look for Mr. Squirrel who may be starting to wear his scarf and hat!
