Monkey Puzzle Highbury joined in celebrating “National storytelling week”; the rooms were filled with our favourites books and stories, using a wide variety of resources to stimulate our children’s imagination.

There is no better way to engage our children, big and small, than with the magic of literature. As the EYFS highlights, ”It is crucial for children to develop a life-long love of reading”. From puppet shows and small world play, to reading with our parents and representing our favourite stories in the garden, there are plenty ways in which our team encouraged the love for reading in the different rooms.

Here are some of the pictures of the fun and literacy-filled activities we had during National Storytelling week, from 30th January to 3rd February.
