Rock on Barney Day
Hello, everyone. I'm Jennifer and I'm an author. I love being outside and looking at all that nature gives us. I don’t mind if it’s wet or dry, hot or cold. I know that there is so much to see. So, today we will be thinking a lot about what we can see or do outdoors or by bringing the outdoors in.
Rock on Barney
In this story we are going to hear what happens when lonely Barney shows off his special talent. You can help Barney and his friends when they are at the disco.
This book allows lots of discussion about the variety of birds eg. shape, colour, size. It also highlights the importance of friendship and not prejudging on the basis of what someone/something looks like. Develops Communication, PSHE and Understanding the World skills.

Feed the Birds
We are going to make a bird feeder to help the birds during winter. We don’t want them to be hungry during the cold weather.
This helps children to think about birds needing food in winter. It will help them to develop their motor skills. Hang the feeder on a tree and encourage them to watch for different birds. You might like to post some pictures on the EYFS Home social media pages. Develops understanding the world, PSHE, Physical development.
Build a flock of birds
This activity encourages children to develop large and fine motor skills such as cutting out and gluing. They can be encouraged to make up their own story about the flock that they have made.
Develops - Physical, Creativity, Understanding the World and Communication and Language skills.
