EYFS Framework:
Communication and Language: Children listen to instructions, discuss party plans, talk about their creations, and engage in social interactions.
Personal, Social and Emotional Development: Participating in a celebration fosters a sense of belonging, promotes social skills (sharing, turn-taking), and allows for the expression of affection.
Physical Development (Fine Motor Skills): Colouring, cutting (bunting, masks, cards, tickets), and writing on templates strengthens hand muscles, improves dexterity, and refines hand-eye coordination.
Literacy: Engaging with invitations and cards supports emergent writing, mark-making, and understanding that print carries meaning.
Expressive Arts and Design: Children explore various media and materials, develop their own creative ideas, and express themselves through art, craft, and imaginative play.
Understanding the World: Children learn about a cultural celebration (Valentine's Day) and participate in community events.
-
KS1 Curriculum:
English (Writing; Spoken Language; Reading): Children practice writing for a purpose (invitations, card messages), articulate their ideas, and read environmental print (banners, tickets).
Art and Design: Children use various drawing, painting, and craft techniques to create their party items and decorations, exploring colour, pattern, and shape.
PSHE (Relationships): The entire pack promotes themes of love, friendship, kindness, and celebrating positive relationships.
