Being thankful

Gerald Giraffe is thankful that he can be creative …

What are you thankful for?

morning register

Do the morning register - look at what day it is and see if you can find your name and practise writing it.

You can either ask mum or dad to print a copy for you to write on, or you can make your own register to use at home.

learning new skills

Over the last few weeks I have been practising my musical skills by practising playing my ukulele.

What skills have you been practising lately?

gross motor skills

Move on paper plates

Learning Objective:

  • To work to develop and strengthen gross motor skills and coordination.


You will need:

  • 6 or more paper plates

  • paint / colouring pens

Learning Activity:

  • Move your body and get creative with some coloured paper plates.

  • Children can colour each plate by painting / drawing

  • Place them in a row (red, green, blue, yellow, red, green, blue, yellow)

  • Ask your child to step on just the red ones

  • Move like your favourite animals - get down on all fours and “skate” with a plate under each hand

  • Put the plates in a row and move around the room

  • Put the plates far apart for big steps. Or put them close together for tiny steps.

  • Step on the plates quietly / softly / loudly / heavily


Other ideas:

Add numbers to the coloured plates to support counting skills. Step on number 5 / 6 / 4

Add music to the activity. Ie, when the music stops stand on number 5….

some extra fun ;-)

Banana sushi

Banana Sushi is a fun way to get kids involved in making their own healthy snack. Simply peel a banana, add your favourite toppings and then cut into bite sized pieces!




great learning today Giraffes!




Have a super afternoon and I will see you again tomorrow :-)
