We are learning about the wellbeing indicators at nursery and decided the best way to introduce these indicators was through the use of our Shanarri dolls. Over the last 3 weeks Safe Sally has taught us all about keeping safe. We talked about how to keep safe at home and the safety around medicines. The children have absolutely adored having Sally in the nursery and particularly enjoyed looking through Safe Sally’s bag and decided which items were safe for children to touch and which items were not. The children even remembered to take Safe Sally out when we had a fire drill. Here are some of the children’s voices round safety:
Amelia – Safe Sally helped us with the fire alarm
Agam – Never touch hair straighteners, they are hot!
Callum – There is a candle inside you might burn yourself
Isobel – That’s a bear that’s safe
Harrison – You have to stop when crossing the road, hold hands
Niamh – Glass will jab you
Freddie – Don’t touch the cooker it is hot!
George P – Mum eats tablets. I only have vitamins
Luca – Don’t touch tablets or medincine
Louisa – A gun is not safe!
This week Safe Sally is going to introduce her friend Healthy Harry to the children. We are very excited to learn with Healthy Harry right up to the Christmas holidays!
Our Shanarri Family
Let us know what your children say at home about Safe Sally and Healthy Harry.
Amelie says “Safe Sally is a dolly who teaches you how to be safe. She is in the story corner.”
Louisa says “Safe Sally only likes safe things and Harry the boy only likes healthy things like fruit and carrots and tomatoes.”
Louisa loves the Shanarri dolls. She was trying to persuade me to tell her who is coming next 🤣🤣
When I asked luca about safe sally he said “I don’t know” 🤣🤷♀️ Thank you so much for the updates on here, Luca doesn’t tell me much!
Ha ha so many children don’t tell their parents much about nursery/school day. Glad you are enjoying the website
I’m getting more today – he’s been singing songs and spoke about safe sally and healthy Harry! Seeing the posts helps to start conversations and get a little more out of him. Xxx
What a good idea.
Arahbella says sally is a doll that keeps us all safe! Healthy harry is safe sallys friend 😊
Well done Arahbella you are spot on.
