we talked about making fairy houses and looked at some pictures
played together in their bedroom
I played Tummy Ache with both kids – H is beginning to grasp the rules but still has problems with turn-taking
played together in their bedroom
wrote a letter/card to Sarah (K)
looked for materials and drew a design for a fairy house (K); got in the way and was a horrible scrub (H)
went into the garden for at least an hour; made a fairy house; found lots of birds nests in the hedge and tree; K and H found a cubby under the hedge; everyone got wet and muddy even though it isn’t actually raining for a change!
came inside and ate very very belated breakfast
K – played in the garden
played together in their bedroom
watched the firewood being delivered; played in the garden
found a bunch of snails in the garden and played with them
had late lunch/early dinner (lunner? dinch?)
generally pottered around the house
I told them a story about the fairy house; read library books to them
annoyed me, then went out and “helped” Mr Bat tidy the shed
