Left over Easter eggs.

Unbelievably we still had some Easter eggs tucked away in the back of the cupboard. Having helped the children out with all the top branded ones we are down to the scraps.
 I melted down some of these and the girls iced some shop bought biscuits and added sprinkles. I put the melted chocolate into a squirty honey bottle and they enjoyed squirting it on.


                                          Some of our better efforts.

Free Kite?


After many attempts in the past to make a light kite that doesn't break and trying to find some thin strong string the wind has usually dropped.
Obviously using a plasic bag has health and safety issues so I would only recommend this for older children who understand the dangers .
She did enjoy running round and round the lawn and gained some exercise

Windy day activities

What a blustery day !We made the most of the wind and enjoyed the sunshine too.
 We wrapped up warm and washed the dolls clothes. I filled a washing up bowl with lots of warm water and plenty of bubbles and the girls enjoyed pretending to do the washing.
 We hung them out on the line to dry, they're still dripping as I write this.
