DIDDY DINOS PRE-SCHOOL
What To Pack For Pre-school
Nappies & Wipes If your child is in nappies you will need to supply them with nappies on a weekly basis. We also kindly ask that each parent donates 2 packets of unscented wipes at the start of the year. We use these for mucky faces, messy activties and toilet accidents.
Sun Hat To be kept at Diddy for the sunnier days of the year. For their own safety, on these days the children require a hat and sunscreen before playing in the garden.
Spare Clothes Your child will have a box with their name on it for their spare clothes e.g socks, underwear, tops, trousers, dresses, jumpers. Whether your child is potty-trained or not, these always come in handy throughout the year !
Lunch Box This only applies to children that stay for lunch. For lunchbox guidance and ideas have a look at our 'Lunch & Snack' page.
No-lace Shoes It would be a gigantic help if your child's shoes are easy to put on and off e.g. velcro or poppers. We promote independence in all areas and being able to put on and take off shoes is a great way to build their confidence !
Books In front of our main door we have a 'Book Swap' for the children. The idea is simple - bring a book, take a book home ! It is a lovely way to interchange books for home reading.
Water Bottle Whether your child has lunch with us or not, we ask for all chilren to come in with a water bottle. We do not accept juice at Diddy, all bottles should be filled with water only.
Cream A pot of cream to keep at Diddy specifically for your child if they have excema or are prone to nappy rash.
We please ask for you to label ALL of your child's belongings very clearly with their name. This makes things much easier for us !
