you don t need any long term planning in fact you dont need medium plans. you need to be reactive to the passions and interests of the toddlers and plan on a weekly basis to meet them. what are they enjoying this week? ow have they reacted to the activities today then stretch them next week keeping 80% familiar and 20 % new. you need to base it on their experiences not on the areas of learning which are only 1/16th of the eyfs almost irrelevant to toddlers. throw it away and focus on tomorrow. pure eyfs and so much more simple and focussed on the children. planning is for the benefit of the adults not the kids. turn your head round and start again you will find it so much more rewarding and exciting and both staff ad children will benefit.
