These last week has been great fun as we have started our summer holidays plan and we are staying busy and having a fabulous time at the same time. We have done hand and feet painting, spent hours in the garden and the paddling pool and kept to the usual routine of swimming. We have been to the seaside for a day out and we have also attended a dance class, a workshop at the pre school and the children attended one of their holiday sessions - all of which they have enjoyed.
However earlier in the week was our first planned 'special activity'. Burleigh Film Festival. I tried to choose the session with the films that the children would enjoy most so we got to see Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and then Finding Nemo. Neither kid usually has the attention to sit and watch a whole film unless they are tired and using it as a chance to re-charge but oldest sat and watch the first film from start to finish and laughed at me and his Grandma singing along.
We had a lovely picnic - nothing special or over the top as I wasn't that organised with the shopping but oldest small thought it was a real treat to eat his lunch whilst watching the TV - something we have never done at home!
I can't wait to go again next year!
But later this week it will be round 2 with a trip to the zoo - can't wait.
