Thanks travel brochures and fruit are a great idea. Not sure about papier mache though - one of my phobias is wet paper :panic:

That's a lovely idea
Why not have two boards then you can have one for the older ones with the festivals etc on and one for the younger ones with more crafty things on
so
April showers - rain/clothes to wear in rain/umbrellas/welly boots etc - you could cut out shapes or find colouring pictures for all of those for the children to decorate
Flowers - which ones are out now - daffodils/primroses etc - make some paper flowers
Pets (for pet month) I've asked mine to bring photos of their pets so I can make a display
Is that any help

They are spanish aren't they!!?
