About Me

Hampshire, United Kingdom
Hi I'm Louise and I've been working with children for over 8 years! Having working in a private day nursery for 6years and now currently working as a Nanny for two families per week. I have been a Nanny since September 2010. I love being able to provide the children in my care a range of different play based activities which they may otherwise never get to experience . I also try to ensure that whilst having fun they're learning important skills to help promote their development and life skills.

Large Scale Painting

Who says painting have to be done on A4 size paper? 

How to entertain 5 children under 5 on a wet and windy day?! 

By painting on a large scale and a wide variety of painting tools and materials, That's how! 


I used a roll of paper taped to the table long enough so all the children could have their own 
section, then arranged a variety of different coloured paints in dishes. The children used 
Stamps and tactile sponges (pictured below), cotton reels, plastic blocks,
glue spreaders, and feathers to paint a variety of patterns, I also provided each child with a small pot of sequins and confetti shapes to add to their giant masterpiece too. 

Once finished the paper can be kept and used as wrapping paper for those special gifts.
