The Marmalade Planning for Play Packs are packed with ideas for playing, talking, exploring, creating, singing, reading, experimenting and connecting with young children.
Designed to complement your child-led curriculum, in-the-moment planning and responsive practice, they give practitioners a full month of high-quality ideas to dip into, adapt and build on.
Inside each pack you’ll find inspiration for:
- Ways to play with children and extend their thinking
- Quality interactions and communication
- Sensory play, process art and creativity
- Experiments and investigation
- Outdoor play and movement
- Loose parts and open-ended resources
- Quality books, stories, songs and rhymes
- Recipes and real-world experiences
- Cultural capital and community connections
- Simple ideas to enhance your everyday provision
The ideas are designed around the normal provision and resources you already have.
The packs simply help practitioners look at provision with fresh eyes and think:
What else could we explore here? How could I join this play? What could I introduce to deepen children’s thinking?
Two complete editions. Instant access.
There are now two full editions of the Marmalade Planning for Play Packs — two completely different years of play inspiration, all available to download instantly.
Choose a single monthly pack, a full year for one age group or a full year across babies, toddlers and preschool.
Use them in planning meetings, dip into them for daily inspiration, find a new book or song, refresh an area of provision or support practitioners who need a few new ideas.
A whole month of ideas. Right there when you need them.
“We could not live without the Marmalade Planning Packs now. Practitioners have wonderful ideas at their fingertips every month and they use them alongside interest-led play to ensure we are delivering a challenging curriculum.
The staff love them and the children are really engaged as a result. Win win.”
Maria, Nursery Manager, Coventry
