Why It's Good

This is one to do with children rather than leave them to it and is really good for building relationships with them rather than the parents (although they won't turn away the results am sure!). It encourages reading and maths skills as well as fine motor skills and is a great opportunity for conversations. It does take a fait bit of tidying up but you do get a little cake as a reward!
