Thank you to our families for joining our ‘Relationships Matter Gathering’. A lovely way to connect and build relationships ❤️ @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social #relationshipsmatter
It is through play that children learn about themselves and make sense of the world around them. @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social #thecentralimportanceofplay 💛🍃
Beautiful interactions as the children explored a variety of experiences outdoors today. #buildingconfidence #climbing #planting #spring @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social
Woodwork allows the children to use their hands and minds, express their imaginations and solve problems in the process of making. #creativityandthepowerofsymbols @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social
A busy and engaging morning, as the children learn through their play experiences, supporting curiosity, creativity and early development💛 @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social
We value the importance of reading regularly as it supports children’s language development, sparks their imagination and builds meaningful connections 📚 @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social #happyworldbookday 💛
To some it is a tree trunk- to others a dinosaur’s back, while others climb aboard a train heading for a new adventure. #TheBestToysAreProvidedByNature @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social
Learning new skills together is always a favourite @lvpsn.bsky.social @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social

Rich outdoor experiences: #EngagingwithNature
Many children are
showing an interest, exploring
and learning about the element of
water… “look my stick is moving in the water” & using our sticks to check the depth of the water before entering. 💕🍃💦
Great to see many parents
join the Block Play workshop.
This supported sharing the
learning and progression that happens through block play at nursery.
Feedback from families told us:
"I found the information hugely
insightful."
" It's opened my mind up to the
possibilities of blocks.”
It’s been wonderful to see the high levels in engagement as the children explore in a variety of mark-making experiences. This video captures so many benefits through these sensory experiences and the skills been developed. @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social 🎨🌺
Looking forward to Parents/ Carers & Family members joining us for a brilliant block play workshop. 💕⬇️

Love it or hate it, maths is part of everything we do, even in fun activities such as woodwork, which can help young children develop core mathematical skills. 🌿

“I want to begin with a thread that ties my Froebelian work together, intellectual kindship, so it’s a form of professional belonging where critique is possible without cynicism,” – Lynn J. McNair
