Celebrate Me!

Support a smooth and positive start to school with this engaging EYFS Transition ‘Celebrate Me’ activity. Designed specifically for Early Years learners, this resource encourages children to share important information about themselves in a fun, accessible and developmentally appropriate way. Using simple prompts such as family, favourite toy, favourite food and personal strengths, children can express their ideas through drawing, mark-making or early writing. This flexibility makes the activity ideal for a wide range of abilities and stages within EYFS. The included differentiated versions (with 2, 3 or 4 sections) allow practitioners to reduce cognitive load for younger children or extend learning for those ready for deeper thinking and language development. Perfect for transition periods into Reception or a new setting, this resource helps practitioners build meaningful connections with children, supports communication and language skills, and promotes a sense of belonging. Completed activities can be used as a discussion tool, shared with new teachers, or displayed to celebrate each child’s individuality. Key features: EYFS transition activity focused on wellbeing and communication Differentiated templates for varying developmental stages Encourages speaking, listening, and early writing skills Ideal for Reception starters or nursery-to-school transition Promotes pupil voice and confidence
