We were playing with figures for Rhyme Time 9. The MO and I were singing, “In and out the dusty bluebells”. We were having a grand old time moving each group through the bluebells. Since they had to hold hands and hold them up we had to find figures in our stock that could do that. Then arrange them so… View Post

Peace
When you’re this age you just go go go until you are crawling across the floor and just rest your head for a moment. … then close your eyes for a second. In the time it took for this cheeky monkey to crawl away fast as I went to the kitchen and came back I found him sparked out on… View Post

Give me five minutes
We like to do play activities here, naturally. The knack is to get the right balance for today, 2nd October 2009. This is different than just the right balance. Everyone talks about balancing their lives. Mostly I take them to mean they want equal amounts of time, effort and energy on each thing. I don’t see balance like that. There… View Post
Homemade Playdough
When I think of my childhood I think of playdough. That’s what we were making here in the Wordless Wednesday picture. We like to make batches of playdough. The boys are so excited when they see the playdough is on it’s last legs. Because they know that we’ll be making some new playdough. We’ve tried the uncooked version but haven’t… View Post

Poetry for the little ones
Following Rachel’s post on poems I thought I would share some of our favourite reads. Since I spent my childhood and then trained in the UK I have a very Eurocentric view of poetry in my collection. Poetry is universal but you tend to stick to what you know right? So for some of you these authors will be a… View Post
