Hi Hun! No your not too late. You basically have the bear for approx a week as there are lots of people interested! You just need to do a bit of a diary, only needs to be a few sentances really and some photos, preferably with the mindees if you get permission and then add them to the link for everyone to print off to make their own records to impress Ofsted! Hope that helps!

He weighs next to nothing! One of the reasons i chose this one! Hopefully wont cost too much. I will try and find out and let everyone know.

That's great, was just a thought, especially as I was imagining him in kids wellies

I think that is a great idea, they do it at school. We go to lanzaroti in June

I'd love to join in - but i know for a fact my mindees parents won't let me take photos to share with other people!!

is that a problem????? I could take him on holiday when I know when i've booked one!!!!

**Tired** · 26-11-2008, 09:48 AM

I'd like to join in too, please

**Pauline** · 27-11-2008, 07:32 AM

When Monkey had the idea for this we had a little chat and decided that, for security of both members personal information and that of the children, that Forum Fred should be limited to Amber and Green members.

There is a thread here with details: http://childmindinghelp.co.uk/forum/...d.php?p=277854

If you are a red member it is nothing personal and we are sure you are more than trustworthy but to meet confidentiality rules for EYFS we thought it important to make restrictions.

**brum-minder** · 12-01-2009, 09:01 PM

Hi, I have just seen this and as a newbie and not registered yet, would be very interested in the future, would it be possible to go on a waiting list or similar?

Fab idea!

Thanks

**misst104** · 13-01-2009, 06:08 PM

Hiya,

I'm also in process of registering but would also be really interested in being put on a waiting list for newbies (if you decide to do one!!). Think its such a great idea and am certain the Ofsted bods would be impressed
