DH went down to the community centre again this morning and took the kids, then came home with them and spent most of the rest of the day working in his office. After lunch, I read some library books to the kids, did lots of laundry and finished menu planning; they played with various things off the shelves in the learning room and with their doll family, did some drawing, and played a long involved imaginary game involving puffles and penguins (during which they decided they wanted next week’s Themed Thursday to be about penguins). I went out during a break in the mizzle and started putting in the fence for the third chook run, DH came out and helped, and the kids pottered about with us and climbed the climbing tree. In the evening, K got inspired by one of the library books we read, The Buried Moon, to dress up like the Moon in the story, and then she ended up changing her costume to represent the different phases of the moon, and H dressed up as Space and then as Sunny Sky (a yellow Snow White dress with a blue cloak over it). I love seeing their imagination firing. H watched David Attenborough while K and Mr Bat played Mhing, the mahjongg card game, before bath and bed.
