Bicycles and Butterflies :D
A fun day filled with painting lots of butterfly pictures both the old fashioned fold your page in half way and more creative K and F ways - wait till you see the pics (still cant find blasted cable!)
We looked out pictures of real butterflies,learned their names and did pictures of our favourites. Also we made up our own species - fun to hear the kids come up with names and fantastic colour combinations!
We have decided to decorate the living room with the pictures as we think they will look nice for lil B's 1st Birthday! This suggestion in turn lead to a Lil B inspired activity of birthday card making, with K showing off being able to write out his card himself!...
To B*
I Love you
You are one!
Love K*
We moved onto a more musical mechanical fun next. Listening to Queen ;) we learned all about what makes our bikes go, this type of activity really excited K as he is the type of boy who cant wait to take things apart and see how everything fits together and works, a typical Virgo if you ask me!
I learned a few things myself here as I'm not very mechanical, I mean I know how you work a bike but not the inside out story - well no that's a lie cuz I do know now! ;)
K also made me promise a family bike ride at the weekend - don't you just hate winter, poor kids cant get out as much, my lot are chomping at the bit to be out everyday enjoying the fresh Scottish air! So anyways I said yes providing it doesn't snow,as we have been told there will be more - gulp!
F however was more interested in dancing to the music - she sure takes after her muma!
