Positively educational

Small has done a sticker book and built himself most of a train track. He’s got some difficulties with levels 😉 but it nearly meets 🙂 Now he’s playing with a musical Bear in the Big Blue House book.

Big and I have read her last two Reading Voyage books, then had an argument about which bits of the author name she needs to write down. I won. The whole process, including finding the missing easy reader took an hour. But her reading is coming along, which surprises me, as it isn’t daily by any stretch of the imagination that we’ve been reading recently. When we do read though, it tends to be a bit of a binge, like this morning, doing two books.

Right, more kitchen to clean, washing to put on, nearly lunch time (kept bread in freezer overnight!), then after we’ve eaten, library and shopping. I need to get to Lembas, but I’m not sure I can face it today with two children. Hm. Might see if I can go later in the week and leave at least one with Barbara 😉

  1. Hmm, disapearing down to Reading on Thursday, but I could always pick up a few bits for you and bring them round tomorrow. If you’re still up for visitors…

  2. Someone mention Lembas? I really have to go see what that place is all about. 🙂
