PARENTS with toddlers looking to join a band of happy, smiling faces once a week are invited to attend the new Tiny Teds toddlers group.

The Exbourne pre-school group was launched three weeks ago, and already has nine toddlers that attend, but there is room for more.

Tiny Teds offers fun and activities for the 0-5 age group and is attracting young mothers and their offspring from all over the area.

Di Clough, the Tiny Teds leader, is a member of the pre-school staff and is very experienced with an excellent Ofsted report for her previous work as a child minder.

Di also organises a Saturday Fun Session on the last Saturday morning of each month, which gives a chance for dads to join in and give mums some time off.

Tiny Teds runs every Wednesday in the Methodist Church Hall, from 9.30am to 11am.

The next Saturday Fun Session is this Saturday, March 27 from 10 to 11.30am.
