Halloween at Bedford St Nursery was a magical time filled with creativity, laughter, and a dash of spooky excitement. Parents, if you're curious about how much fun your little ones had, read on!

Dress-Up Day Delights

Our Halloween celebration kicked off with a vibrant dress-up day. The nursery was transformed into a parade of adorable monsters, with children dressed as vampires, pumpkins, and even a cheeky cobweb! It was heartwarming to see the children embrace their roles, showcasing their costumes with pride and a hint of mischief.

Pumpkin Carving Extravaganza

Each class ventured into the classic Halloween tradition of pumpkin carving. The young artists carved intricate designs, each hoping to be crowned the best pumpkin of the bunch. The activity wasn't just about the end result; the children relished getting their hands messy, exploring the seeds, and delighting in the gooey textures. It was a sensory experience that combined creativity with a bit of science and a lot of fun!

Preschool's Science Spectacle

Our preschoolers took Halloween to a new level by becoming "crazy scientists" for the day. They engaged in exciting experiments, creating fizzing pumpkins by mixing safe concoctions from test tubes. The grand finale was a potion so potent it erupted with bubbles, causing squeals of delight. It was an excellent opportunity for them to learn through play, exploring basic chemistry concepts in a fun and engaging way.

Creative Crafting in Main Nursery

The Main Nursery was a hive of artistic activity. The children enjoyed printing cauldrons using bubbles and crafting playful pumpkins from playdough. These activities helped develop their fine motor skills while allowing their imaginations to soar. The creativity on display was nothing short of impressive!

Spooky Photoshoot Fun

No Halloween would be complete without capturing memories, and our spooky photoshoot did just that. The children posed with two new friends—a skeleton and a pumpkin—creating memorable snapshots that parents will treasure.

A Collaborative Celebration

The Halloween festivities at Bedford St Nursery were a testament to the wonderful spirit (no pun intended!) among staff, children, and parents. Everyone's hard work and enthusiasm ensured that it was a day to remember. We look forward to many more exciting events where your little ones can learn, play, and grow together!
