We had our friends round today for a craft session. I lined the table with paper for our planned big tree picture and big bee wanted to set out paintbrushes and pots etc. she was so excited!
Out first friend arrived! A little bundle of fluff called Sirius! This is T and O's little pup, absolutely gorgeous, so good too. The little chap is actually blind which is partly why he came today, rather than being left at home on his own. A great learning experience for the children learning about disabilities and caring for animals etc.
The rest of our friends arrived, 12 children 2 babies and one pup totally! Lol! After a good ole play and run round, and a spot of lunch the children started on the craft activity. I think they pretty much all got involved, they were having great fun and mostly covered in paint! Little bee was on the yellow paint for the star and the rest were mixing colours to make green and painting the tree.
The little Bubba's didn't do a lot of painting, ;-) just looked all cute and tiny instead!
Big bee getting stuck in..
Two of our friends went home around this time leaving the rest of us to finish up. After the tree was painted they made some baubles for it.
After the baubles were stuck on I had a lovely cuddle with little Sirius. :-) the children all loved him and were so gentle and caring.
A little later we headed outside for a play.. We had a tomato picking session and lots of games of tag, hide and seek and just lots of giggles!
And finally nearly dry now, the finished tree! A great team effort for the children. Fab day :-)
