The Importance of Small World Play
For those that do not know, ‘Small world’ play is imaginary play where models of real settings are used by the children. Animals, vehicles, dolls and mini-beasts are all examples of small world paraphernalia.

What is the best school in Bangkok?
What is the best school in Bangkok? Many parents ask us where they should send their children after life at the British Early Years Centre.

Jolly Phonics’ songs stand the test of time.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCjJYB07aSU It may be have been around for over 2 decades and look a little dated but the Jolly Phonics’ Songs as a Synthetic Phonics teaching aid is impressively reliable. I can not say the same for the actual Jolly Phonics teaching scheme however. Having trained in Early Years in the U.K. at the same…
The importance of using games to teach Phonics
Children love games right? They love exciting and engaging games that they can easily understand the rules to and which they are able to experience the joy and excitement of winning. As adults games need to be at least a little challenging for us to gain the same amount of excitement from a game. Games that…
