Build a lorry and other activities

[childcareexpo]

This year’s Childcare Expo is a world of inspiration for childminders across the UK. For starters, you can take away a fantastic lorry made by your own fair hands from the Community Playthings stand.

This fun workshop gives you the opportunity to become one of Santa’s Elves as you create a hand crafted wooden lorry worth £20. Only the first 100 visitors to the stand each day will have the opportunity to take part, so you are advised to arrive early to avoid disappointment.

Another key attraction is the impressive feature area ‘Inspirational Themes’ created by educational resource supplier TTS. This magical area will delve deep into your imagination by taking you from the land of the dinosaurs right through to a magical ice and snow world. You’ll even get the chance to work in the Wizard’s workshop!

In addition, running throughout the two days are a series of educational seminars. These are designed to inform and invigorate your activities programme. You are also invited to take part in the ‘Play on a Budget Workshops’ which are packed with 100s of budget proof ideas.

With so much to see and do, a trip to Childcare Expo 2012 will leave you with inspiration for the autumn, winter and beyond. If you would like to know more about the show visit the website - www.childcareexpo.co.uk

It is on both days but there are only 100 lorries to give away on each day so we'd recommend getting there early (the show opens at 10am) to make sure that you get to make one
