A huge thank you to Matt's Taps, Plumbing + Jetting for generously creating three water play walls for our playgrounds! These moveable walls allow children to explore scientific themes, build their vocabulary, provide sensory input and cool down, boosting development.

Thanks to Matt’s hard work, the Mimosa Kids crew have even more opportunities to splash, explore and learn through water play! If you’re looking for a local plumber, give Matt a call!

As we begin the year together, our passionate team of early childhood educators are thoughtfully creating learning experiences that reflect children’s interests and support them to strengthen or build their sense of belonging within our service.

The photos shared offer a snapshot of some of the meaningful experiences thoughtfully curated by educators encouraging children to engage, explore, and learn through play. We are taking the time to build strong connections with children and families as everyone settles into their new spaces or familiar spaces with new friends, and we recognise that routines may feel different for some.
Please know we are working to support this transition and ensure each child feels comfortable and supported.

We look forward to a year filled with happiness, curiosity, discovery, enthusiasm and learning!

Whilst we embed conversations about personal safety and protective behaviours with the children in our care, its also important that these conversations continue at home. It involves explaining, modelling, reinforcing and engaging in regular conversations to help children gain the skills and confidence they need to stay safe.

The Child Abuse Prevention Service (CAPS) have a great video to help get you started.

✨L O O S E P A R T S P L A Y✨

Did you ever find a small stash of items your child’s collected now placed so carefully into small piles or lines creating a whole new world?

Loose parts play can unlock creativity, encourages problem solving skills and develops imagination as children experiment with open ended materials, making their own rules and ways of doing. It can turn ‘nothing’ into a beach, castle, person, letters, numbers and anything else a young mind wants it to be.

These experiences often take place over extended periods of time where the real story is in the construction stage, focusing on process rather than product. It is during these kinds of experiences that children learn mistakes are OK and that different ways of using items both abstractly and symbolically allows them to unleash their creativity in ways different to using other more common creative mediums such as paint or crayons.

At Mimosa Kids, we use a variety of bought materials as well as recycled items like yoghurt kids or cardboard boxes, which allow children to see how we can reuse items and repurpose them into something new. Natural materials like leaves, bark or gum nuts can also be added to further develop a sense of respect for the natural world.

So, the next time you catch your child playing quietly with a group of loose items, take a moment to watch them, ask them about their creation because to the adult eye, it’s just a collection of items, but to a child, it’s a whole new world!
