Are you ready to ditch the Elf on the Shelf and shake up your in-class Christmas celebrations? In our latest episode, we share the ups and the downs of creating festive magic in schools. From nativity play mishaps to the pressures of crafting unforgettable memories for the kids, we've been there, done that, and we're sharing it all with you. As a cherry on top, we celebrate our recent download milestone and extend our gratitude to you, our esteemed listeners.

We are hanging up our elf hats this year and exploring a skills-based approach to Christmas. We'll reveal why we've decided to steer clear of using Santa and his elves to manage children's behavior and how we're focusing on fostering meaningful skill development during festive activities. We've also packed our electronic guide with alternative Christmas activities designed with skill-building in mind. And amidst all the festive cheer, we are mindful of varying celebrations and circumstances, offering ideas to bring joy into scenarios where children may not be eagerly anticipating the holiday season at home.

The holiday season can be a tough time for many, and we haven't shied away from this reality. We open up about our own pre-Christmas blues and share our tried and tested strategies to navigate this period. Whether it's utilising meditation apps or visualizing happier times, we hope our tips can offer some solace. As we look forward to 2024, we share our exciting plans including new guests, more content and expanded support for the early years industry. Through your feedback and continuous engagement, we aim to create a nurturing community that supports one another through the highs and lows of festive seasons. Here's to a happier, more nurturing Christmas and New Year!
