The "Together Time" Library is a selection of bags each containing a book and related along with suggestions and ideas of things parents can do at home with their children. Every morning, our Play to Learn Library Co-Ordinator, Sam Goss welcomes the children at drop off time. Each child can choose a bag and return their previous choice.

 

The concept was developed to help inform parents about the way learning takes place at the Treehouse – the valuable ethos of learning through play can be difficult for some parents to replicate at home. The response to our library since it's implementation in 2011 from both parents and children has been overwhelmingly positive – and rife with talk of spaceships, Gruffalo cakes, insect hunts and mud pies! The children really enjoy the chance to read something new at home with their parents, and equally parents seem to love the chance to experience a little of what the setting does at home with their children.
