Readathon
We started the year off with lots of our favourite stories: The Monkey With the Bright Blue Bottom, A Pocketful of Kisses, Cows in the Kitchen, Stick Man, Rachel’s Roses, A Very Busy Spider, Digger, Where Is Baby’s Belly Button, The Queens Knickers, Peepo Baby to name but a few! At 2.30 all the nursery gathered together in small groups with many props to enhance the stories. At Chrysalis the emphasis is very much on books – reading is about enjoyment of words and once we can get children to understand that reading anything is worthwhile we can really give them a great start on their journey to becoming lifelong readers!
