Goodness where did half term week go, flashed by in a whirl! Lots of trips to the park in the sunshine, scooter riding, swimming, a sleepover, a fashion workshop to customise tshirts and jeans and a trip to the museum. The Museum of Science and Industry is a wonderful place to visit - trains, water wheels, weaving looms, spinning jennies, planes and helicopters plus lots of hands on things for me the children to play with. My Little Helper took some photos
of the things that interested him
We went to a great Gravity Workshop, the presenter was really enthusiastic and used lots of funny props to get the children interested and to illustrate the different concepts. My Mummy heart swelled with pride as The Big Sister put her hand up to answer a question and calmly explained to the whole auditorium why a scrunched up ball of paper reached the ground faster than the flat sheet of paper.
Look at my wonderful Valentines Swap parcel! Garden Girl really spoilt me, buttons, ribbon and ric rac plus a cute pink heart made from buttons and of course a packet of Love Hearts. There was a chocolate heart lolly too..humm..where has that gone! The blue beaded bracelet is marvellous, such a lovely combination of my favourite colour and so many beads, they tinkle together when I wear it. Thank you very much Anna!
I also won a prize in Monkee Maker's raffle, can you guess which one....
The chocolate muffin props didn't last long!
