SJ and I have been re-visiting some of my childhood Ladybird stories- the Garden Gang - stories written by a young girl with pictures hand drawn in felt tip. They make good reading for him- stories are not long but have nice varied language with a few challenging words to tax him and a nice simple story line. We have almost finished my little collection and SJ has decided to write his own - Peter Potato. He has almost finished it and we are hoping that he can use it towards one of his Beaver badges
Poor Peter Potatos wife has fallen in the river and can't swim-what a good job that Peter has his jet plane to hand!!!
Another current favourite is Lego- he has fussies between free-building and building his model sets. We are in a 'sets' phase at the moment and he is working on his fire station. He will quite happily poddle off to his bedroom and put on an audio story (Roald Dahl or a classic like Black Beauty)
We are currently watching a few Richard Hammonds Blast Lab which are going down quite well and introducing some ideas - they are also bringing out some amazing snippets of information that I would have never realised that he either knew or understood!
