🐾 Playful Pups Blog – Winter Fire & Ice 🔥❄️ 

Brrr… what a chilly week we’ve had! Our Winter Fire & Ice theme couldn’t have been more fitting as we chatted about the cold winter weather and why it’s so important to wrap up warm. We spoke about wearing beanies, gloves, scarves and warm jackets to keep our little bodies nice and cozy when we head outside. 

We got our week off to a fantastic start with a fun yoga session that helped warm up our muscles and get everyone moving. Later in the week, Coach Trevor put our energetic Pups through a lively FunFit session filled with star jumps, push-ups, running on the spot and balancing challenges on the beams. There were plenty of smiles, lots of determination and, of course, a few rosy cheeks by the end! 

Our creative activity this week was a favourite. The Pups painted a campfire using vibrant reds, oranges and yellows, but with a fun twist! We introduced a new painting technique where watered-down acrylic paint was dropped onto the paper and the children used straws to blow the paint upwards, creating beautiful flickering flames. When I told the class we were going to make a fire, several little voices immediately asked, “Will it be hot?” 😄 Their wonderful curiosity never fails to make us smile! 

It has been another busy and exciting week filled with learning, laughter and creativity. As we finish today, we also begin our Winter mid-term break. We wish all our Playful Pups and their families a wonderful, restful week. To those lucky enough to be travelling—hopefully somewhere a little warmer—we wish you safe travels and a fantastic holiday. 

We can’t wait to welcome all our Pups back on 6th July, refreshed and ready for another term of fun and adventure! 

Have a wonderful break, everyone! 💙

This week, our little Pups have been particularly fascinated by frogs! We have been learning all about these rather amazing little creatures and, much to their delight, the Pups have had the opportunity to observe tiny tadpoles up close.

We have jumped straight into our new theme of Countries and Cultures — admittedly, not the easiest concept to explain to a room full of two-year-olds! 😄
