Deb Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 My advice would be to keep it simple, try to resist the temptation to try too much. Happy, occupied children in I presume 'new' surroundings will impress. We had an open morning last year, which went down well and there was a 'nice atmoshphere'. Mind a bit blank, can remember making a fruit salad with a group of children, all the staff were there to talk to parents too, we offered cups of coffee, had stalls by 1 or 2 parents ie body shop etc. Be interested to see what others do. Good luck with your celebration. Have you asked or suggestions from parents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Do you have data projectors? Slide shows of photos with or without music can 'enhance' an event/situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That reminds me, we had a slide show on a lap top showing photos of children engaged in everyday activities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have just been appointed as a Children's Centre Manager, I am very excited, and would love to know how it went and what went well and what you wouldn't do again.
