As the weather starts to shift, the nights draw in and the leaves change colour, Autumn is definitely here, and provides an excellent opportunity for group observations, themed activities and lots of fun and learning.

With eyLog you can add multiple media to a single observation, enabling you to truly capture the story. Observation sheet format can be customised to match your processes and the comprehensive sections allow staff to add activity analysis, assessments, next steps and notes to ensure a thorough observation. We also have a feature to mark an observation as ‘Spontaneous’ when you just want to capture an interesting moment to share with parents.
