Following natural curiosities and (by their choice) doing a fair number of experiments - good old Usbourne books- The Big Book of Science things to Make and Do, this was Ice Boats- watching the way that ice melts, density of, watching coloring dispersing through the water
We also made Zappy Zoomers and Catapult planes. Working on our Body model we have just covered eyes and bowels- Daddy did their first dissection- Pigs Eyes- thanks M- I enjoyed collecting those from the butcher!
FI is progressing with her reading- she enjoys moving on a level and has just moved to Blue Oxford Reading Tree- the stories actually have a bit of a theme here- but they have always liked the pictures and spotting the hidden objects- so Biff Chip & Kipper have suited us well.
Life is complicated and moving so fast- the days are bouncing by and sometimes I feel we are living merely for the moment rather than moving our dreams on- of course the flip side is that time passes so quickly that if you don't stay in the moment- things move on. Hmmmm totally contradicting myself there- hard when you are in a renovation project. We have made the classic mistake of having too many things on the go- such that none is moving forward- that is without family commitments elsewhere....
