Hi Stacie

Have a look through the 'Birth to 3 Matters' thread posts on here - there are some fab ideas for planning, observations and activities - angel's planning is relevant for your agegroups and she's put so much work into it

I answered a thread the other day about how I plan - that might give you some tips as well

Angels advice is great and I have incorporated that into my planning. I have a long term planning sheet, a medium term sheet and then will do weekly sheets as I go along. If you want the template, please pm me or visit the bromley site as I think that is where I got mine from.
