Theme of the week: Bubbles!

Maya and I discovered the wonder of bubbles last week - bubble bombs with baking soda and vinegar (only 1 of the 3 actually exploded but never mind!), bubble art using food colouring in the bubble mixture and, of course, lots and lots of bubble blowing! We tried different mixtures and blowers and found that the very best bubbles come from a mix of 3 parts Johnson's baby shampoo to 1 part water with a bit of glycerin thrown in for good measure, blown through a paper cone. The bubbles were so strong that Maya could even catch and hold them, and they were absolutely huge!

Theme of the week: Transport!

Quite a timely choice for our TOTW, being as how we bought a new car today!! Pictures of that to come tomorrow (hopefully...). We had a lot of fun this week - I hope that comes across in the pictures :)





Maya and Elise also loved opening their parcel :D

Welcome to a new feature!

I thought it would be nice to post a weekly 'round-up' of all the things we've enjoyed doing during the week. Nothing special, just a peek into our daily activities :)

This week: pressed flower pictures, jelly bean sorting and counting (and eating!) and sunflower seed harvesting...
