THE excitement of the Commonwealth Games spread to a nursery yesterday, as children took part in a series of activities.
Youngsters at Kids and Co Nursery, at Darlington Town Hall, held their very own mini-version of the international sporting event, which is taking place in Manchester.
The young athletes also made flags to decorate the nursery helped by staff on their Commonwealth Games day.
A spokesman for Darlington Borough Council said: "The kids have had a brilliant time finding out about the Games and getting ready for the launch of the event.
"Although the competitors weren't from around the globe they had plenty of fun and are looking forward to the Commonwealth Games."
