All About Me poster
Early Years Consultant Alex Chiorando explains how you can fill in the All About Me poster with your child.
Designed to celebrate each child鈥檚 personality and help them develop some of the everyday skills they鈥檒l need at big school, our downloadable poster sits alongside the Early Years curriculum. It鈥檚 a great at-home project for families to work on together, sparking lots of really useful pre-school activities 鈥 and it can go on the fridge when you鈥檝e finished, or be presented to their new teacher when they start. It can be printed as A3 or A4.
All About Me: Guidance for parents and carers
With lots of ideas for using the All About Me poster, this is packed with at-home activities to enjoy with your preschooler. These will help children develop the confidence and skills they鈥檒l need at big school, including independence and self-care, recognising their name, working with numbers and talking about the things they love.
All About Me: Guidance for Early Years professionals
Aimed at Early Years practitioners but easy for parents and carers to dip into too, this shows how the activities on the All About Me poster work with the learning objectives that many nurseries would usually follow in the run-up to big school. It has ideas for extra activities that will work at home as well as in childcare.
