We love seeing our new pond life rollers being enjoyed and they create such beautiful effects in natural coloured play dough. Lots of opportunities for creative investigations and storytelling 😁 Thank you @ourmanycoloureddays • ℙ𝕠𝕟𝕕 𝕃𝕚𝕗𝕖 •

AD| Isabella really loves her playdough. She also loves when her plantoys frog puzzle is in rotation! So when @yellow_door_education asked if we would like to try some new rollers we jumped at the chance!

The way the indents in the ends match the scenes is brilliant! Swipe to see what I mean. We had so much fun and I’m already wanting all the other sets too 😅

Rollers available @littlewhispersuk

This beautiful photo of our Fruit & Veg Stones makes it feel like spring even when it’s snowing outside 😁 thank you for brightening our day! @bubblesandbellylaughs Fruit and Veggie Garden

Today the kids did some gardening and they picked some yummy fruits and veggies! 🍓🥝

I am SO ready for spring but while we (not so patiently) wait for it to arrive, we decided to do some pretend gardening to help prepare us for the real deal!🙌🏼

I filled the bin with stale Coco Krispy cereal and placed our @yellow_door_education fruit and veggie stones up front in rows. I added some brown crinkle paper in the back and “planted” a few felt flowers for the kids to pick.🌸 They had so much fun harvesting all their crops!🍋🥬🍅

The kids have been loving the fruit and veggie stones. We have already used them in our sensory play, with the play kitchen, and in the bath. And we can’t wait to use them in our new mud kitchen which gets delivered today! 😍 They’re so fun and versatile! And so beautiful too!♥️

🐘 Safari Adventures 🐘
Our beautiful footprint stones offer the perfect opportunity to explore the animal kingdom. Use them alongside photos, figures and favourite books to extend the learning and play. We love this example from @keziangelica 💕

Regram @keziangelica I’ve been eyeing @yellow_door_education products for quite some time andddd… finally @kidzbarntoys have them available here, kamsahamnidaaaa 🥳 This is their Let’s Investigate Safari Footprints set 🐆🦓🦏🦒🐘🦛

These double-sided stones are made out of resin (or they call it “unique stone mix”), which makes them durable to use indoors AND outdoors, heat AND cold, water resistant, and there are sooooo many ways to play (and learn) with it 🧡 Such as sorting, matching, role play, examining, crayon rubbing, put them in the freezer to make ice, andddd so much more! 🤎 One side of the stone shows the animal, and the other shows the animal’s footprint 👣

Today, we used them as stampers with my personal fav homemade playdough from @momndough 🌈 sort them with fact cards & figurines from @gamemontessori ✨ and match them with my anatomy cards which you can purchase from the link in my bio.

🦴 Explore and Discover 🦴
Whether it’s digging things out of sand or pushing into playdough there is something quite magical about unearthing exciting finds! Children love to get hands-on and discover more about their discoveries just like this beautiful set-up by @island.mum.island.baby

#regram • @island.mum.island.baby Fossils and stones. This was a big hit, we looked through this book together and matched pieces up to our resources, we then buried our treasures in playdough and excavated them while talking about colours, textures, fossils, minerals and more.

🌟Winning Combinations 🌟
We love to see which resources you use alongside your Yellow Door products. Whether it’s a favourite book, playdough, natural objects gathered from outdoor adventures or much loved items from your setting or home. What’s your favourite combination that’s guaranteed to capture the children’s attention?
Thank you @tiger_and_fox_rocks for sharing this fantastic play with us.

#regram First time playing with our @organisedchaoswithkids woodland rice! The boys squished it in to the play dough in seconds! 🙈 We really needed this activity after school today- I’m not sure what it is about play dough play that calms the boys, maybe it’s the texture and perhaps the amazing smell. It’s also the first time we used our @yellow_door_education woodland footprint stones. How have o waited so long before getting these? ! They leave such a clear impression and really add a new dimension to our play and learning. We used the @usborne_books ‘The Woodland Book’ to read about animal tracking - I picked it up in the library last week, it’s a really informative book about trees, their seeds and woodland animals- definitely one we will be adding to our home collection.

Today's after school activity was a super quick set up, but the children all loved it!
I buried our @yellow_door_education Fossil stones in sand, then set out some wooden tools, natural loose parts, fossil flash cards and some beautifully scented @scarletts.senses play dough for them to make prints with.
The fossil stones are fantastic! So detailed and well made, love everything from @yellow_door_education ❤

🌟Exploring Patterns🌟
Curved, wiggly, bumpy, straight! Combining resources is a fantastic way for children to create and explore patterns and textures. Playdough and Sensory Stones, as shown in these gorgeous pictures from @four.little.beans, is a classic pairing.

Regram @four.little.beans
I spent so long crafting myself today that I had nothing organised for the kids 🙈
I gave them some beautifully scented dough from @scarletts.senses, along with some wooden play dough tools and @yellow_door_education sensory stones both from @little_acornsuk, and they had a great time!
Sometimes the simple set ups are the best as it means the children can use their imagination more ❤
