Our (not so) Secret Garden
If you've seen this post, then you will know that we usually spend our Sunday's - the only day each week that we are all free - squeezing in some fun family time at the park.
Unfortunately, today's weather isn't great. It started off way too hot to go out, and now is wet and looking like it's on it's way to stormy. So after a big clean up this morning and some lunch, I figured it was time to decide on an activity for the arvo.
This is what happens when Mummy and Daddy get creative. ;-)
I've been working on this idea for a few weeks now. And by 'working on this idea', I mean saving toilet paper rolls and hiding them (because my kids instantly have wonderful idea's on how to decorate the looking glass this time and steal the rolls before I get a chance to use them).
So today we made a garden, complete with three flowers, a bee, a butterfly and a ladybug. And Logan made an ant. I say 'we' intending to include the children, but if I'm completely honest, the kids only really got to paint. Cos I'm mean and was excited about our garden. Oops.
So here they are:
And then we made binoculars to look at the bugs in the garden:
Cute huh? ;-)
