24.01.2022 What have our Baby Tots been up to lately? Well, they've been super busy having tonnes of fun while learning and developing new skills! When they haven't been having fun outside, cooling off in our water play area, they've been exploring the sandpit, using their gross motor skills to climb and crawl through tunnels, as well as take part in sensory fun. ... They've also had the opportunity to practise their fine motor skills while painting, and their language skills while reading their favourite books. We love our happy babies! . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #christian

23.01.2022 Check out the lion faces that we whipped up today in our Cooking Class. The kids thoroughly enjoy these classes and so do we because cooking is so beneficial for our children. Not only does cooking teach them valuable life lessons, it also helps them to become more adventurous eaters who are willing to try a wider range of nutritious foods. ... It also helps children to: - develop their fine-motor skills - develop hand-eye coordination - improve language skills, mathematic skills and science skills - build relationships PLUS its super FUN and YUM!

23.01.2022 Monkeying around the kitchen at our Friday Cooking Class! The kids loved incorporating our safari theme into their very own monkey pals. The best part about making these is that they are super fun, yummy to eat and really easy to make. If the adult/s assisting preps everything beforehand (thats what we did), then the kids just get to pick their favourite toppings to create their monkey faces. ... Swipe to the last photo for a full list of ingredients so you can try these at home!

22.01.2022 Some of the most awesome animals live in the African Savanna and this week our Safari Explorers have been busy this week learning all about them! Some of the things they have gotten up to include: - animal sensory activities - footprint painting... - group painting - theyve even made animal faces out of food! As you can see, learning about these animals is super fun and a little messy, but we love it! . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #christian See more

22.01.2022 In Australia, our summers are hot, long and often unforgiving, so it's important that we make sure that we protect ourselves and stay SunSmart! At Mini Bambini we are committed to protecting ourselves and our children, instilling the importance of being SunSmart from a very young age. Remember to slip, slop, slap, seek and slide, every day this summer! ... . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #sunsmart See more

21.01.2022 The beauty of the world lies in the diversity of its people. Here at Mini B’s we’re all about celebrating everyone’s uniqueness and diversity, because what makes us different makes us special! To highlight this belief we celebrated Earth Day by learning about different cultures. ... Our After-School Care kids created this super awesome artwork and discussed where everybody was from around the world. Then they painted planet Earth and coloured in people from different cultures. . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #diversityandinclusion

21.01.2022 We love our dads, we think theyre pretty smart cookies who ought to be celebrated. Thats why on Friday, our Super Dads were treated to a delicious homemade pie at drop-off and pick-up. We hope you enjoyed your yummy treat and that you all had a wonderful Fathers Day on Sunday!

21.01.2022 Kids love getting involved and helping out around the house, they especially love getting messy in the kitchen! But did you know that getting them into the kitchen is actually really great for their development! Through cooking, you can help your child learn basic math skills, boost their creativity, improve their motor skills and encourage them to try new things. It's also a great way to teach them how to follow instructions, a skill that's super important for when they he...ad to big kid school. . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #christian

19.01.2022 Hi everyone, I’m Amy, the Lead Educator of the Toddler 1 Room at the magnificent Mini B’s. I am currently studying towards my Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care, with plans in the near future to complete my Early Childhood Teaching Degree. It is my belief that every child has the right to feel safe and secure whilst in my care. It is of utmost importance that they are provided with a safe environment where they can play, develop, and build a sense of identity. I ...believe that children always need to be seen as individuals and know that they are important and unique. My own philosophy is closely related to the Montessori approach, it's all about empowering children and learning through child-led activities and through play. I believe that this provides them with the ability to learn and develop whilst having fun. Interacting with other children provides them with a sense of belonging and confidence that supports growth and development. I truly do love being a part of the team at Mini B’s!

19.01.2022 Wondering what our babies have been up to? Teacher Beth has been introducing our babies to the wonderful world of colours! They've been exploring getting creative (and messy), using different objects and their hands to mix colours and create beautiful works of art! They also used their fingers to draw shapes and identify letters. ... Babies love to be involved in activities that are new and exciting, activities that allow them to further their developmental skills while having fun! Teacher Beth has certainly 'ticked' all the boxes this week!

18.01.2022 There's always lots of fun to be had here at Mini B's! Our Vacation Care kids have been enjoying themselves indoors, in our indoor 'outdoor' area, where there is ample space for them to run and play, even when it's too hot to head outdoors. ... . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #christian See more

17.01.2022 Last week our Toddler 2s got super messy for one of our most favourite weeks of the year - Science Week! One of the activities our budding scientists got to take part in was the creation of goop. They were absolutely fascinated by the textural magic of it, and they were especially interested in the way that it went from hard to soft just by being touched. They also had lots of fun creating a volcano and watching what happened when we combined baking soda and vinegar - talk a...bout AMAZING! But the crowd favourite of the week was our "milk dancing" science activity - a relatively easy experiment that you can replicate at home! All you need is some milk, food colouring and dishwashing liquid. First, we poured the milk into a clear tray (we all made sure to surround the tray so we all had a good view!) Then we took turns picking different coloured food colouring and dropping it into the milk. Next, we used our fine motor skills and liquid droppers to drop dishwashing liquid onto the food colouring. This made the food colouring split from itself, creating a "dancing" effect in the milk. We love incorporating science into our curriculum as it assists children with play. It helps them to question, explore, develop their creativity and problem-solving skills. It also helps them develop other skills like literacy and numeracy. Thats why it is woven into the outcomes for children under the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) eg. children are confident and involved learners (Outcome 4).

16.01.2022 Whats better than getting to read books with our best friends? Getting dressed up as our favourite storybook characters to celebrate all of our favourite books, with our best friends! We had so much fun last week getting into the spirit of Book Week - just look at some of the wonderful costumes that graced our centre. ... We especially loved seeing our educators as the Tellytubbies and 101 Dalmatians!

16.01.2022 At Mini Bambini we love celebrating your kiddos birthday just as much as you do! That's why we've created our very own birthday tradition to celebrate our birthday boys and girls which includes their very own handmade crown and delicious homemade cupcake with a candle, of course. As you can see, it's definitely a hit! ...

16.01.2022 Over the past week we've had a focus on outdoor fun and boy, oh boy have we been blessed with the most glorious weather! We've been spending lots of time outside, making the most of the sunshine, playing in Toni's Garden and working on our gross motor skills. We even got to enjoy a delicious picnic in the garden thanks to our wonderful cook, Vanessa! Thank you for organise all of the yummy food for us! ...

15.01.2022 What have our Baby Tots been up to over the past few weeks? Well, theyve been busy practicing their fine motor skills, hand eye coordination and developing their concentration skills through a variety of stimulating sensory activities. What is sensory play? ... Sensory play includes any activity that stimulates a young childs senses of touch, smell, taste, sight and hearing, as well as anything which engages movement and balance. This kind of play is a vital part of early childhood development as it provides children with the opportunities to actively use their senses as they explore their world, which is crucial for brain development.

15.01.2022 Mini Bambini Early Learning Centre is proud to have supported Red Nose Day 2020 - Helping to raise much-needed funds and awareness for little lives and grief-stricken families. While incredible gains have been made to reduce sudden infant deaths since the first Red Nose Day in 1988, the fight must continue. In Australia, nine children still die suddenly and unexpectedly every day.... Thats more than 3,000 babies, toddlers and preschoolers every year more than double the national road toll. Supporting this organisation means a lot to our Mini B family.

13.01.2022 While it might be freezing cold and wet today in Perth, we have been quite lucky with the warm winter weather that we have been getting over the past couple of weeks. The children have loved being able to get out in the sunshine and engage in lots of outdoor play. Theyve all been having so much fun! Its safe to say that theyre all looking forward to getting back out there when this spell of wet weather passes. ...

13.01.2022 Were excited to announce that we will be out and about in our community from Monday 5th October - Sunday 11th October at Wanneroo Central Shopping Centre. One of our friendly educators will be there between 8am and 4pm, with information about Mini Bambini, enrolment forms and ready to answer any questions that you might have about early childhood education and care. We cant wait to see you all! ...

13.01.2022 "It takes a big heart to help shape little minds." Thats why theres a special day of the year where we as a nation stop and take a second to thank the amazing people who help shape our next generation. Early Childhood Educators Day recognises and celebrates the work of Australias educators in early learning services. Its a chance to say thank you on a very personal level for the contribution that they make towards the wellbeing and development of the children that th...ey care for. We would like to take this opportunity to thank each of our wonderful Educators for the hard work, compassion, and the love that they bring to Mini Bs every day. We are so proud of you. We value you. Thank you for your ongoing commitment and loyalty to Mini Bs.

13.01.2022 Hello everybody, my name is Cary Rowsell and I am the Kindy teacher here at Mini Bambini. My approach to teaching is relatively simple and effective. I strive to be the kind, gentle, and nurturing educator who takes the time to get to know each child on a personal level. I enjoying teaching in a play-based manner and work towards fostering children’s imaginations by providing them with open-ended materials. I love... working with a child’s strengths and seeing them thrive with confidence when teaching what they know to others. Learning from each other is a great way to promote self-esteem, friendships and confidence in a child’s learning. I aim to provide the Kindy kids with fun, spontaneous activities yet a structured morning routine to teach the fundamentals of numbers, letters, days of the week, colours, etc. Our Kindy kid program also has a strong focus on school readiness, where we learn basic skills like sitting on the mat and listening when others are speaking. I look forward to meeting your little ones and working together with your families to ensure that they receive the best start to their education.

12.01.2022 We all play an important role in our community, whether were teachers, firemen, police officers, have any other job or are just little kiddos with big dreams. Thats why this week weve been learning all about Our Community and the importance of everyone who is a part of it. Weve had a special focus on Emergency Services, weve built fire engines out of recycled materials, police cars out of paper plates, dressed up as firemen and even pretended that we were brave firefigh...ters on our very own outdoor firetruck! Its been so much fun!

12.01.2022 On 11 November 1918, the guns of the Western Front fell silent after four years of continuous warfare. With their armies retreating and close to collapse, German leaders signed an Armistice, bringing to an end the First World War. Today, on 11 November 2020 we take a moment to pause and remember the 330,000 Australians who served in WW!. #WeRememberThem

12.01.2022 This week we brought the 'zoo' to Mini Bambini! We've been having lots of fun exploring all the different kinds of Zoo Animals as part of our 'Outdoor Fun' theme. The kiddos in our Kindy Room got creative, using their fine more skills and imagination to paint their favourite zoo animal. ... Our Toddler 2's got to get super messy, exploring the use of their senses as they searched for different zoo animals in sticky spaghetti, herbs, sand and water!

11.01.2022 The Early Years Learning Framework encourages educators to actively engage children in their own learning by identifying childrens strengths and interests and then reflecting these in their planning (Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations, 2009). This ensures that the childrens learning is not only interesting but also meaningful and relevant (Early Childhood Australia, 2012). With that in mind, our Toddler 1 kiddos have been very interested in our Com...munity theme, so theyve been using their imagination, current knowledge and creativity in some fun activities that focus on transport and construction! - They made cement by using flour and water to create a paste that they built on using building blocks. - They dressed up as construction workers! - Teacher Amy made a car track for them to explore, it even included some of their favourite places! - They painted with cars and did tyre track painting. All in all, theyve been having a whole lot of fun while learning all about things that are important to us all.

11.01.2022 Splish, splash! It's starting to warm up here in Perth, Summer is drawing nearer so our kiddos have been having lots of fun cooling off outside with some water play! Some of our water play activities have included splashing around in shallow puddle pools and exploring our sensory skills using lots of different objects in big water throughs. ... . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #christian See more

11.01.2022 We see rainclouds, we see birds nests and butterflies too. Everything is growing, the wind is gently blowing, Spring is here! Happy first day of Spring, everyone. ...

11.01.2022 Have you been making use of the Mini Bambini Library? - If you havent, what are you waiting for!? Our library features a variety of books for children of all ages and interests. Pick a book (or two) with your child and take them home to practice our two favourite kinds of reading. Book Sharing and Reading Aloud.... "Whats the difference between these two types of reading?" While both of these activities are super beneficial for children as they are about sharing and discussing books, each activity has slightly different objectives. Reading Aloud is when you read a book TO your child. This is a wonderful activity for helping your child develop their vocabulary as it normally involves a book with more challenging text. Its also a great way to introduce higher-level thinking. Book Sharing on the other hand is when you read a book WITH your child. It is an interaction between the reader and listener, while having a conversation and making comments about the book. It helps your child with reading comprehension. Simple tools for shared reading - pause regularly during the story and ask your child for predictions. A useful tip is to start sentences with I wonder(why, what, how, who). Happy Book Sharing, everybody!

10.01.2022 Hi everyone, my name is Jordan and I’m the Kindy Teacher here at Mini Bambini. I grew up with my grandparents and hope to buy my first home with my partner this year. Three years ago I decided to quit my career in marketing and go back to uni to do my Masters of Teaching in Early Childhood Education and it is the best decision I’ve ever made!... I love working with children. Watching them grow and learn brings me so much joy. Here are some fun things about me: My favourite colour is: pink! My favourite animals are: elephants My favourite movie: Harry Potter My hobbies include: cooking and baking! A fun fact about me: when I was little I was such a fussy eater! I would only eat cheese, chicken and bread! I can’t wait to meet you and your little one and introduce them to our wonderful centre! . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #meettheteam

10.01.2022 Hey Mini B families, we have a brand new feature in our centre to help improve our services. Every month we will have a new question and our ‘yes’, ‘no’ and ‘feedback’ box.

10.01.2022 Independent children believe in themselves and in their capabilities of looking after themselves. Thats why in our Kindy Room we have been spending some time focussing on the importance of independence, through the practice of self serve. Essentially we are providing the children with the opportunity, means, guidance and support to make the best decisions for themselves as individuals. - Something that will come in very handy when they head off to school. ...

10.01.2022 Knowing who to call in an emergency is super important, that’s why our Toddler Two’s have been busy learning all about our emergency services and what they do in our community to keep us safe.

10.01.2022 Spring is here at Mini Bambini and our beautiful garden is in full bloom!

09.01.2022 It's been a very special week this week at Mini Bambini, celebrating the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the spirit of NAIDOC Week 2020. Some of the activities that we have gotten to participate in include dot painting, creating symbols in the sand and painting our very own Australian Aboriginal Flag using our handprints. Thank you to our Educators for teaching us all about this important week and for setting up so many ...fun activities!

09.01.2022 We all know that Imaginative/pretend play encourages creativity and imagination, it enriches language development and nurtures social-emotional skills. But how can parents and caregivers encourage imaginative play? 1) Dont get frustrated when children move materials and toys to other areas. Instead, ask yourself why this is so important to you and decide whether your reasons are clear. If so and if you feel strongly about keeping materials in each area separate, make a habit... of discussing it with your children from time to time. By doing this it will become a set rule that everyone knows and is reminded of. We suggest that when toys and/or materials are moved to the role play area, take a moment to observe whether the children are using them creatively in their play (e.g a block/crayon/playdough becomes a symbol for food or a telephone). If so, allow them to continue and the when play is finished, remind them to return items and materials to their own areas. 2) Remember, theres no need to provide all sorts of real-looking things for children to play with e.g a Hair salon or doctors clinic. Parents and educators often (enthusiastically!) provide all sorts of real-looking things for children to play with. The problem with this is that very little is left to childrens imagination. They do not have to work very hard in symbolic play. Symbolic play is the type of play where children use an object or toy to represent something else. Therefore it is essential to include loose parts/ open-ended materials to an area and to allow time for free discovery play - unrestricted by equipment like seats or locations like commercial play centres. 3) Join in as an active participant in your childs imaginative play! This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with your child and to think of ways to extend their games (books, stories, trips, more materials). We do acknowledge that it is sometimes hard with our busy lives. A useful tip is to encourage pretend play games at home as the opportunity arises for example pretending to cook alongside mum (while she prepares dinner). Get out the pots and pans and do add a little rice and noodles for him/her to stir!

08.01.2022 HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2021 is here, it’s a brand new year, a brand new day and we are super excited for what's to come! We hope you all have a great start to the year, here’s to 2021!... . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #christian See more

07.01.2022 You know what they say, "variety is the spice of life." - Thats why we did something a little different for last weeks Make it Monday. Instead of creating something crafty, we made something yummy! Previously our Kindy kids used their creativity and imagination to create imaginary play-dough ice cream, but this time they got to make ice cream for real! ... Swipe to find out how they made it! "We got to try what we had made with afternoon tea and it was delicious!"

06.01.2022 Mini B's is a purpose-built Early Learning facility located in the heart of Sinagra, in Perth's northern suburbs. We cater to children ages 6 months - 5 years of age.

06.01.2022 Whats the best way to teach children all about healthy eating? - Getting them in the kitchen, of course! The Mini Bambini kiddos love our Friday Cooking Class. They have so much fun learning all about healthy eating, making delicious foods, and enjoying them with one another. In our last Cooking Class, we created mini pizzas and our very own homemade veggie soup. ... We think its safe to say that both dishes were thoroughly enjoyed! YUM!

05.01.2022 Our Kindy kids needed a safari truck to explore the African Savanna in. So, with a few boxes, some paint and lots of glue, they used teamwork and their imagination to create their very own safari truck out of recycled boxes. Using recycled materials is a great way to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in our landfills, teaching our children about the importance of sustainability. Using recycled materials also encourages critical thinking, problem solving and resourceful...ness.

04.01.2022 Hi everyone, my name is Eleanor and I’m the Centre Director here at Mini Bambini. I’m 24 years old and have my Diploma in Early Childhood Education. I absolutely love working with children, watching them learn, grow and discover the world around them is my passion. Prior to living in Perth I lived in the UK with my family. I’ve been in Perth since I was 7, it’s my home. ... When I’m not working I like to spend time socialising with my friends and spending time renovating my home. Here are some fun things about me: My favourite colour is: Blue My favourite animal is: Dogs! My favourite movie/ tv series: The Notebook Fun fact: I'm expecting my very own Mini Bambini in December!!! I can’t wait to meet you and your little one! . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #meettheteam

04.01.2022 Weve all played with play-dough at some point in our lives and weve all found it amusing (even now as an adult it can be a fun activity to share with your child!) But did you know that it also helps children develop necessary everyday skills? Some of the skills include: ... Proprioception - often described as the sensations in the muscles that bring about bodily awareness and help with coordination. Pulling, pushing, flattening, molding and pounding play-dough are great activities to improve proprioception skills. We prefer using fingers and hands, but do encourage the use of tools like rollers, hammers, and scissors so that children can learn to use them. Intrinsic muscle strength when a child rolls a small ball of dough, with their thumb and fingers, they are working on strengthening the muscles that they will later use to write and colour. Finger isolation - using a single finger to perform a task. Pointing a finger, wiggling all of the fingers individually, and counting out the fingers on your hand are all finger isolations. Finger isolation is required for various functional activities, like dexterity in managing pencils and paintbrushes, tying shoes, and more. Honestly, it really doesnt matter what you do with playdough - the opportunities and benefits are endless! How to make Long lasting Play-dough: 2 cups flour 2 cups salt 4 teaspoons cream of tartar 2 cups water 2 teaspoons cooking oil Food colouring 1.Mix flour, salt and cream of tartar 2.Add water, oil and colouring 3.Heat the mixture on the stove until the dough pulls away from the pan 4.Remove from heat and knead it immediately.

03.01.2022 More than a word. From the 27th May until 3rd June it was National Reconciliation Week. A time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.... This year’s theme was ‘More than a Word’, acknowledging that reconciliation takes brave and impactful action. Here at Mini B’s the children got the opportunity to learn about and incorporate indigenious culture into their daily routine. In this photo, the children are pictured drawing the indigenous symbols in the sand. . . . #daycare #education #earlylearning #motherhood #fatherhood #family #love #childhood #kindergarten #perthlife #perthmums #perthdad #perthkidz #perthkids #minibambiniearlylearning #perthkindy #daycareprovider #daycarelife #daycarecenter #daycarekids #learning #learnandplay #learnthroughplay #growth #growtogether #growwithus #australia #westernaustralia #culture #reconciliationweek2021

01.01.2022 Sibling relationships are emotionally powerful and critically important not only in childhood but over the course of a lifetime." - Department of Health and Human Services Siblings form a child’s first peer group, and children learn social skills, particularly in managing conflict, from negotiating with brothers and sisters. Sibling relationships can provide a significant source of continuity throughout a child’s lifetime and are likely to be the longest relationships that m...ost people experience. At a family-owned centre like Mini Bambini, family means everything! We encourage the relationships between siblings by responding to their needs and fostering the bonds that families create. Our friendly educators aim to provide for opportunities where siblings are able to visit each other throughout the day.

Seeing as weve been learning all about our community and how it works, we were very excited to have one of our very own Mini Bambini dads come in last Friday and tell us all about his important job as a policeman. He even came dressed in his uniform and let us have a look at his police car.... How lucky are we!?
