Leading the way as the Ultimate One Stop Shop

LONDON, ENGLAND, February 05, 2011 (Press-News.org) Hope Education understands the importance of delivering quality and innovative resources on time and at the right price. For 2011 Hope have strived to improve and increase their range of educational resources to make them the ultimate one stop shop, and at this year's Education Show an extensive range of these new resources will be on display.

Hours of exploration and fun with Hope's New Obzipod table

This innovative table is just one of the latest offers in Hope's extensiveEarly Year's range. Hope's corporate partnership with National Day Nurseries Association (NDNA) has allowed Hope to talk to Nursery managers up and down the country, assessing their resource requirements and developing suitable learning solutions. The reoccurring theme was the need for multifunctional furniture that can be used both indoors and outdoors. The Obzipod's multifunctional element is that it is both a storage unit and an activity table, with 8 built in play dishes which are great for facilitating messy play. The table also comes with 4 magnifying containers which sit within the play dishes and allow children to investigate and explore to their hearts content. The table comes with a perspex lid allowing the station to be used as a simple work surface and the depth of the table creates ample storage space to pack away all the goodies required for investigative, messy play.

Great Resources for the EYFS

Through Hope's corporate partnership with the NDNA, they have kindly endorsed products which they believe to be innovative and support the EYFS. Come and see which resources they have listed as their favourites; it's always good to know which products will work well within your setting and of course ones that have had the NDNA stamp of approval!
