A bit of sand art

Big set to this morning with a sand art set last seen over two years ago. It was fascinating to see how different approach was this time. She was at it for a good couple of hours, and produced two pictures. She did the first one according to the instructions, then decided that the colour scheme was a bit weird, and reorganised it for the second.

The planning was great, and she really carried it through well, producing two lovely piccies. Small amused himself singing along to Inspector Gadget and Bear in the Big Blue House, while dressed as scooby doo (of course!)

They played with the post office stuff some more, and then started to be horrid, so I chucked them outside. I think that pretty much covers the day actually.

  1. Today, Emma was using an activity book that she hadn’t looked at in about 2 years. It’s fascinating to see the change.
