Children in Willow Room at The Limes have been enjoying learning more about autumn this week. Some children went for a walk along the bike path, where they collected leaves and looked closely at how the trees are beginning to change with the season. They noticed different colours, shapes and sizes of leaves, and enjoyed talking about what they could see around them. These experiences helped to develop their curiosity, observation skills and understanding of the natural world.

The children were also excited to welcome visitors from the Bristol Library team. They listened carefully to a wonderful story and joined in enthusiastically with songs and rhymes. Sharing stories together supports children’s communication and language development, while singing helps to build confidence, listening skills and a love of books.

The library team reminded us just how much fun reading can be, and inspired many children to talk about their favourite stories and the books they enjoy sharing at home. It has been a lovely week of exploring, discovering and learning together.
