Some schools and nurseries across the country have adopted more flexible policies, asking children to wear comfortable clothing or pyjamas instead of dressing up.
It sure does take out the expense and stress of sorting a costume. But does it take away the imagination and joy from dressing up as a character, or is stripping it back to what the day is really about - encouraging a love of reading?
What are your thoughts and how do you feel about it? 📚

Salad Days’ Story

Magazine for parents and carers of children who are in the age range 0-18 years. The name comes from Shakespeare and means the best days of youth - so it’s nothing to do with lettuce and tomatoes! It all started when I couldn’t find the local Brownie group - there was nowhere I could find that sort of information out from, except by word of mouth. So Salad Days - because they’re only young once - was conceived!
