Extra Experiences That Enrich Every Child’s Learning
At Busy Little Bees, children enjoy far more than a standard nursery day.
Across all our nurseries, we offer a rich programme of experiences, celebrations, consumables and parent support that go far beyond standard childcare — giving families genuine value and children an inspiring, joyful early years experience.
Daily Enrichment & Learning Enhancements
For all age groups, we offer:
Sports, movement and/or dance sessions delivered by specialist coaches or visiting teachers
Singing, music and rhythm sessions that build confidence, language and joy
Cooking and baking activities with our kitchen supervisor
Gardening & nature time, planting, growing and caring for our outdoor spaces
Messy and sensory experiences carefully planned to support development
Creative arts & craft workshops using high-quality materials
STEM-inspired activities (construction, problem-solving, early science)
Preschool Enrichment & Real-World Learning
As children move into preschool, we extend their learning beyond the classroom through safe, meaningful outings, including some/all of the following:
Weekly library visits for Storytime and book borrowing
Forest School sessions at partnered sites
Care-home visits supporting empathy, communication and community connection
Local park adventures exploring nature, movement and physical skills

Local community walks, shops, post office and more
These visits build confidence, independence, awareness of the world and readiness for school.
