Welcome to the latest edition of Little Learners


In this issue, we’ve teamed up with our friends at Yellow Door, Learn Well, TickiT, Twinkl, and Learning Resources, to bring you some of our best ideas and inspiration yet…


Ready, steady, cook! Get messy in your mud kitchen with unique role play activities from Yellow Door that will help your little ones develop a better understanding of the food they eat whilst having fun.


Make friends with your feelings – good and bad! Cath from Learn Well has some insightful ways to allow children to recognise, understand and share how they are feeling.


Get to grips with small loose parts and practise mindfulness with a little help from TickiT.


Learning Resources go back to basics with simple ways to make coding fun - we also put one of their most popular products to the test.


Twinkl take a closer look at the revised Development Matters Non-Statutory Guidance for the EYFS and what it looks like now.


…all this and much more! We hope you love reading Little Learners Issue 12 as much as we have loved creating it.
