Nursery   Baskets Resources A variety of different baskets/bowls or pans (perhaps 3-8 in total). Collections of lovely things that you already have e.g. small world play figures, cotton reels, pegs, buttons, lego people etc. Provide an assortment of objects that are small enough for the children to hold in their hands Allow the child or children to play with objects and baskets. Children often enjoy putting their things in containers and sharing with friends (whether equally or not!). Encouraging mathematical thinking and reasoning: Tell me about what you have in this basket. What happened when you put that in?

Snuggle  up  with  your  child  and  share  a  book  together.  After  reading  you  may  like  to  draw  a  picture  together  e.g  if  there  was  a  dinosaur  in  the  book  you  could  draw  your  own  dinosaurs.  Use  lots  of  language  as  you  draw  e.g.  I’m  using  a  small  circle  for  the  head  and  a  big  circle  for  its  body.  It’s  got  4  legs  and  2  big  pointy  teeth.    Phonics  Allow  your  child  to  play    Teach  your  monster  to  read  for  10  mins  daily  https://www.teachyourmonstertoread.com

Sleeping Giants. Here's how you play:

Tell the kids that they're going to pretend to be giants who like to jump -- then have them bounce up and down for practice.

When you say "Sleeping Giants," the kids have to stop jumping and lie very still on the floor.

When you say "Waking Giants," the children will jump up and down until you call out "Sleeping Giants" again.

The best part about this game is that parents can get creative by changing the name of the game to any fun creature they know their child will respond to, such as "walking penguins,"

How could you have more ... in your basket? Have a look at ...'s baskets. Are they the same? What makes that one different? Position and spatial properties: • using positional language, for example: on top of, next to, underneath, in front of, behind, between, left, right, etc., to describe the items in the baskets and the positions of the baskets themselves    

"hopping frogs," "skipping elephants," and "crawling bears."
