Elf on the Shelf

We are joining in the Elf on the Shelf fun again this year! The Elf of the Shelf tradition started over in America and is quickly becoming popular here in the UK. The Elf on the Shelf pack includes a special scout elf sent from the North Pole to help Father Christmas manage his naughty and nice lists. When a family adopts an elf and gives it a name, the scout elf receives its Christmas magic and can fly to the North Pole each night to tell Father Christmas and the elves about all of the day’s adventures. Each morning, the elf returns to its family and perches in a different place to watch the fun. Children love to wake up and race around the house looking for their scout elf each morning.

Jane is back with her Learning Resources family for Christmas. She is saying hello to some of the friends she met last year, and introducing herself to the many new people that have joined the company in 2014.

We’ve had a very good year this year, and have seen the company grow a lot! We have taken on 9 new members of staff and we’re set to continue the trend into 2015. Jane has enjoyed meeting the new people, especially Jo who we like to refer to as our ‘in-house education expert’.

Jane has had a lot of fun already, she has been to LA with Dennis to visit the Educational Insights offices. While she was there, Dennis treated her to some new accessories. What a classy elf we have now!

Our little elf also joined Sammy at a very festive Holkham Hall at the weekend. While they were there she listened to a lovely choir, saw some Victorian Christmas cooking and visited the deer. Jane’s favourite festive room within the hall was the tree room!

Just yesterday Jane helped John to decorate the Christmas tree of the Learning Resources offices. Do you think she did a good job? Our tree was kindly donated by Sam in our accounts department.

Do you have an elf visiting your home, work or school this year? We’d love to know what they’ve been up to. Keep track of Jane the elf’s activities and the Learning Resources festive spirit on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LearningResourcesUK.

Until next time…

Get into Gears!

Hi all

Gears! Gears! Gears!® is a very popular brand name in our household! Squirt loves playing with the different gears to make lots of different designs, and it’s something she enjoys with her Dad has he loves playing with construction toys! She was bought the Movin’ Monkeysâ„¢ Building Set for her birthday last year. She was a bit young for it at the time, but loved playing with the monkeys and all the different trees - they ended up in the bath on more than one occasion! Now she’s older she lovely building with all the gears and connectors and swinging the monkeys from the springy green vines.

A brand new product to the Gears! Gears! Gears!® range is the new Build & Bloom Flower Garden. This has only been available for a couple of days, but knowing how much squirt loves the range, I thought I’d ask her opinion of the new set!

Here are some of the things Squirt said about Gears! Gears! Gears! Build & Bloom:

“I like the bees and butterflies and flowers.”

“Daddy has to help me put the bricks (base) together.”

“The pink ones are my favourite.”

“I like it when they spin.”

The set of 115 includes flowers, butterflies, bees and ladybirds, along with colourful gears and wiggly flower stems! Not only is the set a lot of fun, it also helps to develop critical thinking skills and encourages creativity.

 

To find out more about the Gears! Gears! Gears!® range, view the products on our website. I particularly like the Gizmos® Building Set with so many pieces and parts it will offer colourfully and dazzling play for hours on end!

These sets will make great Christmas presents that will keep children entertained for hours! Find them in our Christmas Shop here. In case you didn’t already know, all items in the Christmas Shop are buy two get one free!

Until next time…
