Chinese New Year RANT!

At the end of the day they are learning other things from the activities you are doing. It's just something a bit extra to relate it to a festival and whilst they might not be learning much something as simple as using a Chinese doll for the first time or eating Chinese food is still significant festival or not

My sister in law and nephews are Chinese so we celebrate it in our house anyway - BUT i do think that anything that increase children's familiarity with different cultures fosters a more tolerant adult population and also doesn't variety make our job more interesting and fuel children's imagination.......

Now if there was a "let childminders lie undisturbed on a sunny beach sipping a cocktail" day......Im in!
