The birthday calendar
Birthday calendars - in our nursery we have a great focus on children's participation in most of what we do - including the birthday calendar.
All the children (3-5 years) have made their own crown - chosen color on cardboard, cut out (the youngest needed help and got it from the older children), wrote their name (most wanted to do it on computer - then did they themselves, printed and cut out), decorated the crown with grease markers (we have spent a few weeks exploring the possibilities of grease markers) and some stickers. Also clearly see the progression the children have from year to year. All the children are incredibly proud of their crown and can't wait to take it down on their birthday?? When the children have had a birthday, we hang a picture of the child with the crown on.
