The Message is Fun This pack highlights a series of activities that can be used in environmental play settings. Funded by Barnardo's, the Children's Play Council and the Big Lottery Fund, it illustrates how to use recycled materials for art, as well as explaining how to use the photosynthesis process as a play activity. It also contains a CD-Rom of activities, and a year planner for play workers to structure a play programme.

Child Focused Scrutiny

This guide from The Education Network aims to explain to councillors how the reforms of children's services will impact on their scrutiny of local authority services. The scrutiny function was established under the Local Government Act 2000, and gives non-executive councillors the power to scrutinise services and policy decisions outside the traditional council remit into areas such as health. The guide also highlights examples of best practice from children's services.
