This hedgehog subitising (subitizing) game encourages children to spot the hedgehogs with the appropriate number of dots (in different formations). ‘How quickly can we match all of the hedgehogs to the correct piles of cosy leaves?’
You may want to add an element of challenge with a timer, e.g. ‘Can we get all of the hedgehogs to their safe hiding spots before the timer runs out?’ (We would advise beginning without a timer and then only adding this element to progress the game once children are becoming confident. Start with a time which is definitely achievable.)
Choose the appropriate pack for your child(ren): Subitising to 3, 5 or 10. Other 2 packs available here.

Numbers 0-20 (and corresponding number of spots for 1:1 correspondence counting) on hedgehogs. Create a hedgehog number line, or place appropriate number hedgehogs for your child(ren) in a tuff spot along with Autumn themed loose parts. Can children count out the correct number of loose parts to give their hedgehog? Or play an ordering game…Can you place the hedgehogs in the right order? Or perhaps play which hedgehog is missing? After placing the hedgehogs in order, take one away. Can your child(ren) work out which one is missing?

Have great messy fun decorating your own tree with Autumn leaf fingerprints! Why not use this opportunity to reinforce with children that leaves grow on the tree, start to turn a different colour and eventually fall to the ground leaving the tree bare?

Versatile ‘My Outdoor Art’ frames. Here are some ideas:
Create artwork in your outdoor area/garden/local park/forest/beach using natural loose parts such as pebbles, twigs, shells, leaves, etc. Take a photo and place the photo in this frame for display.
Collect natural loose parts from the outdoors and use them to create a collage within this frame.
Take these sheets outside attached to a clipboard, find a calm spot and make marks/drawings to reflect what you can see, hear, smell, etc.
Have fun!

This hedgehog subitising (subitizing) game encourages children to spot the hedgehogs with the appropriate number of dots (in different formations). ‘How quickly can we match all of the hedgehogs to the correct piles of cosy leaves?’
You may want to add an element of challenge with a timer, e.g. ‘Can we get all of the hedgehogs to their safe hiding spots before the timer runs out?’ (We would advise beginning without a timer and then only adding this element to progress the game once children are becoming confident. Start with a time which is definitely achievable.)
Choose the appropriate pack for your child(ren): Subitising to 3, 5 or 10. Other 2 packs available here.

These Spring Senses Poem mark making prompt sheets will help encourage your children to draw and/or write about their senses and start to get a feel for poetry…perhaps after the children have been on a Spring walk! Children can complete them at varying levels. For example, your youngest children may be able to tell you what they see or hear and you can scribe a single word in each box. Some children may like to make marks to represent what they sense and your more developed children may like to write the rest of the sentence thinking about describing words to build a picture in the reader’s mind. Please note, the words do not need to rhyme.

‘Signs of Spring’ cards. Ideal for use as part of a Spring display to visually highlight the changes that happen following Winter. Cards can also be used as a great stimulus for communication and language. When used as part of a display or offered as part of an invitation to play children may initiate communication to you or other children about the cards in a child led fashion. Alternatively, adult led interaction could include closed or open ended questioning. Younger children may point to familiar objects when prompted e.g. ‘Where’s the tree?’ and learn new words as you describe to them what is in the picture. As children progress, more ground may be covered such as ‘What colours can you see?’, ‘How many ducklings are there in this picture?’, ‘Which is your favourite card?’, ‘Why do you like this picture the best?’, ‘What do you think this tree would look like in the Winter?’, ‘Have you seen any of these signs of Spring?’, ‘Where?’, ‘When?’, ‘Who were you with?’, ‘Shall we go outside and see which of them we can find?’

Signs of Spring’ colouring cards. As with the display full colour versions, these colouring cards are ideal to visually highlight the changes that happen following Winter. In conjunction with developing fine motor skills and expressive arts and design elements (e.g. the choice of colours), cards can also be used as a great stimulus for communication and language. When offered as part of an invitation to play children may initiate communication to you or other children about the cards in a child led fashion. Alternatively, adult led interaction could include closed or open ended questioning. Younger children may point to familiar objects when prompted e.g. ‘Where’s the tree?’ and learn new words as you describe to them what is in the picture. As children progress, more ground may be covered such as ‘What colours have you used?’, ‘How many ducklings are there in this picture?’, ‘Which is your favourite card?’, ‘Why do you like this picture the best?’, ‘Shall we draw blossom on this tree?’, ‘Have you seen any of these signs of Spring?’, ‘Where?’, ‘When?’, ‘Who were you with?’, ‘Shall we go outside and see which of them we can find?’ If children take their pictures home, further consolidation of new vocabulary and Spring facts may arise through additional communication with those at home.

Have fun with this set of 8 Spring Activity Challenge cards. Perhaps children could stand in a circle around the pile of cards and take turns to pick one for everyone to do. Once the children get to know the cards they will be able to relate the action to the picture without necessarily needing the card read to them...For example an adult may be able to simply hold up a card and everyone will be able to do the activity together! Great for physical development, descriptive language, understanding the world and turn taking.

This ‘myth buster’ fact sheet is not intended for use with children, but for practitioner background knowledge. It explains that while lots of animals slow down in winter, they don't all "hibernate" in the same way. The key differences lie in how deeply they sleep, how much control they have over their body temperature, and how easy it is for them to wake up.
We hope you find it useful!
