It’s the little things
Here at BestStart Vivian where we bring our A game there are some special little moments that we love to share with our whaanau and parents.
When you use your imagination anything can become a ritual. What started off as a discussion about “having a frog in your throat” became “there’s a crocodile in my pocket!”
Today one of our little friends was looking for her favourite teacher, when we couldn’t find her (she was on an excursion) we went for a discovery journey to see who else could help.
When we got downstairs, and I started zipping up her jacket, she put her finger to her lips and whispered “ssshhhhh there’s a crocodile in my pocket!” I got in role and asked her if she thought Dale knew about pocket crocodiles and suggested she show Dale. “Dale, there’s a crocodile in my pocket” “I don’t want to get eaten!” said Dale.
This resulted in a game where all the children joined in with Dale to see if we needed to feed the crocodile.
The littlest moments can make the biggest impact. Bringing your A game everyday is recognising this, to improve children’s lives little by little. Everyday. Making a difference. What’s in your pocket?
