The 1st of December brought us to the beginning of our festive and frosty fun. Nursery were excited as we had a visit from a little Elf called Christopher Popinkins.. We found him peeping at us! He brought them a lovely gift wrapped in tissue paper and Eva was chosen to open it. Inside was a Peppa Pig Advent Calendar! We discussed the numbers on the front and Eva opened the very first door number 1. Yum..
I wonder what Christopher Popinkins will bring us tomorrow?

Nursery found Christoper Popinkins hiding in the classroom.. he had another gift for us! It was a beautiful book telling the story of a magic little elf called - Christopher Popinkins!! He lives with Santa in the North Pole.
I wonder if the children can tell you about him?

Today we found Christopher hiding in the creative area, he was peeping behind a christmas postbox and we wondered if this was a clue... Beside the postbox was a present wrapped in beautiful green ribbon. Annabel opened up the gift to find 'The Jolly Christmas Postman' book. We cant wait to read it!!
Ask the children about the job of a postman!

Maybe you could take your children on a real train?
