A fabulous week of fun
National
Childminding Week 2010 - "Reaching the right notes" was a great
success, with hundreds of events throughout England and Wales.
The week kicked off with a letter in
many local newspapers from Susanna Dawson, NCMA's Chair, outlining
the benefits of home-based childcare.
Other highlights of the week included
Wales' Biggest Smallest Choir, where over 20 events were held
around Wales involving hundreds of children and their
childminders.
Elsewhere, parents, nannies,
childminders and children alike joined with the musical theme in
many creative ways, making instruments, singing to elderly
residents at a home, dancing and signing
to music.
MPs and Welsh Assembly Members also
had fun and joined in with some of the events.
Who
Minds? magazine will be featuring some of the highlights in its
August/September issue.
