So that gap between Christmas New year and any new events (think we will be looking at festival of light)

Obviously Winter Season and there are themes you could use but looking for ideas for 11 month old and 2Yr old that they can do together.

Any ideas appreciated.

(Ps. thanks to Pauline getting me back on forum! x)

I use whipped cream as an alternative to soap, doesn't matter if babies eat it as long as not dairy allergic.

I tend to look back at Christmas so they can make sense of what happened, so I give them left over christmas paper to wrap empty boxes, we make Christmas dinner in home corner, make chocolates with play dough filling empty chocolate boxes, cut up Christmas cards.

We are going to be looking at transport along with winter this term, hoping it snows so we can get out the sledges!
