A Busy Day At Home...

No trips into the Forum on Thursday, just lots of activities with Rosie at home. She had a very creative to-do list forvthe day... 
  • Make Whoopie Pies
  • Build circuits with the electricty set
  • Make friendship bracelets
  • Decorate the new iPad cover 
  • Make concrete with Grandad
  • Design and decorate a tee shirt
  • Learn to use Hama beads
And we managed everything except the bracelets!
I was given the sticker at the Science Fair. But, as Rosie explained to Bob "Grandma doesn't really like the American spelling!"
The end of a super stay ‐ Liz, Jon and Jess arrived in the evening, and will be around till Sunday. And Monday she'll be back at school [on her birthday]
Thank you Ro for a lovely week!

    1. We found a printable colouring picture online and traced the outline, then she added her own details and colours with fabric pens. And Grandma ,"fixed" the design with a hot iron
