DTS have just turned 3yo and when I picked them up from nursery yesterday, their key worker said that she would soon start giving them homework!. I was so flummoxed by what she said, I was lost for words.
Since when did 3yo in nurseries need homework? She said that it would be things like colouring in pictures that they give them. Fair enough but I do that with them anyway. I can only think that it is a requirement by Ofsted that they need to record children's progress.
It is a very good privately run nursery and the boys are really happy there (they run in and start playing straight away - I have to distract them to get them to say goodbye).
I just find it hard to comprehend the need for 3yo toddlers to have homework!
