In light of the new EYFS I have decided to change the way I do my learning Journeys and am writing for ideas of information sharing for parents to give them ideas of things that would be useful information. I have done an info sheet to give out, but need all you lovely Childminder's ideas in case there is something I may have missed... here is what I have so far ....

New interests
New fav toys/books
Games like to do at home
memorable moments
plans for weekends/holidays
share photos
messages from pre-school
Accidents or sickness
New likes or fears
Achievements
Things for supporting their child
Responses to each days activities/info

Is there anything else I may have missed ?

Thank you xx

I like this - not too much for them to answer!

This is really helpful. After being on a recent course, I have realised I need to try to encourage parents participation. The parents are pretty good - I use an online system and they often write comments, however I think I still need to be a bit more proactive and I am hoping that they will respond.
