Up, Up, and Away! Elf Day Magic & Learning Fun at Honey Bees!
What a truly buzzing week we've had here at Honey Bees, a kaleidoscope of learning and festive cheer! Our little busy bees have been soaring through numbers, refining their motor skills, and undoubtedly, celebrating the magic of Elf Day!
Our mathematicians-in-the-making have been diving into the fascinating world of numbers 1, 2, and 3 this week. We've counted our friends, our fingers, and all sorts of exciting objects, making early maths both fun and tangible. We also explored the concept of "up" with great enthusiasm! This tied perfectly into practicing our motor skills, ready for writing. We learned what the top of objects and lines were, and had an absolute blast dancing with our colourful scarves, throwing them "up" into the air and watching them float down – a flurry of laughter and movement!
But without a doubt, the absolute highlight of our week was our spectacular Elf Day! What an incredible day it was, not just for fun, but for a truly special cause. We were so incredibly pleased to see so many of our wonderful Honeybee families join us, helping us raise much-needed funds for the Alzheimer's Society.
The air was filled with festive cheer as our little elves got busy! We had great fun wrapping Christmas presents, decorating festive biscuits and filling Rudolph jars! Our ice and Christmas sensory trays were a huge hit, offering chilly, tactile fun with zesty oranges, prickly fir trees and plenty of festive scents. And then, the moment we'd all been waiting for… a very special visit from the big man himself! Santa Claus stopped by, bringing smiles, laughter, and a sprinkle of festive magic to every single Honeybee.
A massive, heartfelt thank you to all our wonderful Honeybee families who attended and made Elf Day such a success. Your presence and enthusiasm made it truly unforgettable, and a huge thank you for your incredibly generous donations. Your kindness means so much to the Alzheimer's Society. We're busy counting all the pennies, and we can't wait to update you next week on the grand total we managed to raise!
