At a recent Sanquhar Nursery Peep session, we explored how play and everyday experiences support healthy brain development 🧠
Children loved “building their brains” through shared learning with parents and carers 📚

At Kirkconnel ARC, some of the service users made their own clay pots, and had great fun painting them. 😊🎨
They chatted about what seeds they’d like to plant and decided lavender would be a lovely choice, as it is such a beautiful scent! 🌿
Well done👏
