🦉✨ Owl Babies = Big Lessons in Tiny Feathers! ✨🦉
The story of Owl Babies isn’t just cute—it’s a little guidebook for growing hearts:
🕰️ Waiting is hard… but patience makes us stronger!
😟 Feeling scared is normal… and talking about it helps.
🤝 Sticking together… siblings and friends make worries smaller.
💕 Mummy always comes back… love is constant, even when we can’t see it.
🌟 Bravery shines… even tiny owls can be brave in the dark.
At Monkey Puzzle Grange Road, we don’t just read stories—we bring them to life so children can feel, play, and grow with every page. 💛

🌟 What a day! Last week, our three Cambridge settings came together for an inspiring training day packed with creativity, play, and learning. From curiosity and treasure baskets to forest school fun by the fire 🔥, our passionate seniors led hands-on workshops that sparked ideas and deepened understanding. Staff explored Pikler and Montessori approaches, baby communication 🍼, and got crafty with loose parts and painted pebbles 🎨. We wrapped up with laughter-filled team games and a spooky Halloween dance 👻. Everyone left buzzing with fresh insights to bring back to their settings! 💡💚 ... See MoreSee Less
