Last month we looked at the options for purchasing a data projector. This article explores its use in the nursery. Your first task is to set up the projector. If you are using a desktop PC then you will have to connect it through the monitor socket at the back of the machine. If you are using a laptop then you will need to set it for external monitor use. This is usually with one of the function keys, F4 or F5; it sometimes has a picture of a monitor on it. Hold down the Fn key, usually bottom right of the keyboard, and press the correct function key.

Christmas came early this year for four-year-old Jack from Twickenham when his picture of a Christmas tree won this year's Teddies Christmas card competition. His design appears on 3,000 cards being sent to parents of children at BUPA's Teddies Nurseries. It won the young artist Pounds 25 in vouchers and 200 worth of equipment for his nursery at March Road, Twickenham. Nursery manager Kim Seex said, 'Jack loves drawing and spent a lot of time working on his design. The children really enjoyed coming up with ideas and it's a great way to show parents what we do.'

We were interested to read the original letter by Jane Mills ('Playdough anyone?', 25 September), as we have experienced the very same problems when making playdough using the cooked method that she described. The only successful recipe has been one using drinking chocolate or cocoa powder. We were concerned that the children would eat the playdough, but that has not been a problem.
