25.01.2022 What are your ideas for kids to get a great night's sleep? . Platinum Education Group. Proud to be unique: https://bit.ly/3qSNkyw

20.01.2022 How much fun is halloween!!! Today our friends loved dressing up and participating in some Halloween themed activities. We had slime, face painting, and cupcake decorating! There is a child in everyone of us who is still a tricker-or-treater looking for a brightly lit front porch... Can’t wait for our next dress up!

20.01.2022 Bush Kindy A unique approach to connecting children with nature. The beautiful thing about life, is that we will never reach an age where there is nothing left to learn, see or be: it’s magical really Dulce Ruby Each of our team members sets individual goals, this helps us to ensure that we are always continually up to date with current perspectives, learning something new and taking action to ensure that we are implementing the best quality practice for all of our chi...ldren and families. Miss Ashlee is our sustainability officer here at Platinum Education, as part of her goals she wanted to learn more about embedding indigenous perspectives and children connecting with nature. On Tuesday Ashlee was lucky to be invited along by Cumberland Council to experience her first lesson in Bush Kindy. Nestled in the Central Gardens of Merrylands, she joined fellow early childhood professionals, this is her account of what she learnt and what she is going to put into action at our service. Within the first few minutes, I scurried off to choose my leaf which would be my name tag for the 2-hour session. We began the session by acknowledging the aboriginal and TSL people of the land. For the first activity we gathered into a small and collected what we could find and began to create our own story sticks. We wrapped twine around our sticks as I then pushed in flowers (wild and native) leaves, gumnuts and a few cockatoo feathers into the sides of my stick. We use the earth and what was around us to recreate stories. We then used our nature hunt picture boards to search for all the items in nature. And then to finish off we participated in a calming session, where we sat in a nice safe place and just listened to all the sounds of nature around us. Bush Kindy offered calming, meditation like play to allow children to use all their senses to connect to the natural environment. Bush Kindy offered calming, meditation like play to allow children to use all their senses to connect to the natural environment. Helping to shape creative mindsets in a curious and unique way by enriching sensory play whilst still following the interests of the child. At Platinum Education we find the children continually show an interest in the sounds and sights of native Australian birds as they play outside, by continually bringing our attention back to nature it allows us to be mindful in the moment and take in everything around us to continue to connect with the outdoor world. At Platinum Ed the children thrive on being outside. This experience offered some ideas and unique approaches for group experiences we can use to extend the children’s play and add an element of storytelling linking it back to the importance of the Indigenous history of Australia and culture. Thank you so much to Cumberland Council for hosting this event!

17.01.2022 I was talking to a family about this the other day and thought I would share the story! You know the times in life when you are just trying to juggle way too much, and when your in these times, it can feel at any moment everything could come crashing down. As human beings we go through seasons, some seasons, you feel like you have it all under control, but others, perhaps not. ... What if, instead of feeling on edge, we just gave ourselves permission to let some of our balls fall, give ourselves a break and focus on what matters most. This is the story that some of the balls we are juggling are made of rubber and some are made of glass. If we drop some for a short period, they will bounce back once we pick them up again, but if we drop the glass balls, they could have long term effects. So next time you are having one of those moments, maybe consider, which of your balls are made of glass? And which ones will bounce back if you let them go for a bit! Putting your priorities first is not selfish it’s essential!

15.01.2022 Episode 2: 10mins @ 10am - The Ritual of Meal Times: In a recent block episode of The Block there was a controversial decision as one of the contestants choose not to include a dining table in their living area as they felt it was "outdated" and nobody used them anymore.

I want to introduce you to creating a ritual around meal times in your home. 1. How to involve your child in meal times 2. Questions to add to your no distraction dinner time ritual 3.

09.01.2022 Book week; we have been sharing so many amazing stories this week with our friends at platinum education. Did you know? Children who read for just 20 minutes per day see 1.8 million words each year and have scores on standardised tests in the 90th percentile (because they have experienced so many words!). Compare this with the child who is reading for just 1 minute per day, they only see 8000 words each year and have scores in the 10th percentile on standardised tests. It ma...y feel hard to find 20 minutes each day to read with your child, but the cost of not doing this is far too great. A small amount of reading each day makes an incredible difference! (Nagy and Herman, 1987) Here is our wonderful miss Natalie sharing one of our favourites the magic in you What are some of your favs at home?

06.01.2022 Sleep is one of the biggest frustrations we hear from so many families.
