Is that a collective sigh of relief I hear? Those are some long holidays!
So, shiny new shoes, spanky new uniforms, pencil cases and school bags at the ready, our army of little cherubs prepare to march off into the new year of learning.
Lots of parents come into the shop interested in supporting their children's school learning with home activities. We have a wide variety of products across the curriculum to support and develop your child's education.
Here's a closer look at just a few of them.
Flashcards can be a useful tool for both literacy and numeracy. In the above picture you can see the lovely Anna, aged 3, helping me to play with the Usborne ABC cards. The pictures are bright and engaging, with lots to talk about on each (including that pesky duck who hides and must be found!)
For slightly younger kids, these flashcards are chunky and bright, and can help children with the earliest stages of literacy.
And once they're at big school, reaching the heady heights of P1, phonic cards are a great fun way to practice and learn all the phonic sounds your child needs.
Of course, it's not just the kids heading back - the teachers are heading back too!
I particularly like the new planner we have in stock - ideal size with a nice clear layout. We also have a wide range of teachers' aids, from reward charts to stampers.
Our display posters and accessories are also worth a look to brighten up your classroom! Display products. The posters are extremely good value for money, and we have a wide range - plenty of choice, including multi-cultural, across the curriculum.
Happy September, everybody, have a great year!
