we walk and talk about what we can see/hear etc, lots of colour/counting/letters for the younger ones and talking about our day for the older ones. sometimes we sing ... to the utter embarrassment ( :D ) of the older children who didn't come to me as a LO ... those children join in loudly !!! :laughing:
