Healthy Smiles — a visit from the dentist
As part of the Healthy Smiles initiative we invited Luton House Dental Practice to visit us at Teeny Days Nursery to talk to the children about how to take care of their teeth. The children watched demonstrations of good tooth brushing on dummy teeth, after which they were able to have a turn under the guidance of the dentist. At the end of the visit all children received free goodie bags, which was lovely.
Daily tooth brushing
We are pleased to be part of the Healthy Smiles initiative, supporting and teaching children how to look after their teeth. Each child is provided with their very own toothbrush and every day the children have a tooth brushing session where brushing is modelled and all children brush their teeth together. Parents have even testified that since joining the nursery their children’s tooth brushing has improved, which we love to hear.
Cooking day
Wednesday is our cooking day. Recently we made heart shaped pizzas — the children were encouraged to use a variety of vegetables including peppers, courgettes, spinach and pineapple to explore different colours, tastes and textures, and they thoroughly enjoyed it.
Role play
At Teeny Days, role play is extremely important to us. As well as a home corner, we have a theme-based role play area that we change regularly. Role play encourages language development, communication skills, imagination, confidence and relationships with peers.
Baby Clinic Role Play
As part of our “All About Me” theme, we created a baby clinic where our children brought their baby dolls in for treatment and other children role played being doctors and nurses. This was one of our most popular role play set ups.
Jungle Role Play
This role play area was based on a jungle theme, where dinosaurs and jungle animals live side by side. The children thoroughly enjoyed pretending to be jungle animals as well as playing with the jungle toys.
Dentist Role Play
As part of the “People Who Help Us” theme, we created a dentist role play area. Teddy is waiting patiently to be seen by our budding dentists.
