The Beginnings of Tot School

I will most likely have Munchkin do some "Tot School" activities next year so that he can feel included in our school day and also to give him activities to occupy his mind and body while I'm schooling the other boys.

I have therefore been trying out a few different activities with him as I make some mental plans to see what he likes to do and what holds his interest.

This selection of photos was taken over a period of several days.

 Enjoying drawing with his own special set of textas...

 He LOVES water play...

 In between his tastes of the playdough he actually did some playing!

 Putting pipe cleaners in an empty water bottle... this activity would have held his interest much longer I think if his brothers hadn't decided to "help" him!


Collage with contact paper and coloured cellophane


Playing with our box of match box cars and other vehicles is a favourite activity at the moment.

Painting...



While Monster and Monkey painted their Bush Fire paintings, Munchkin gave Paint With Water a try.  It looks like it may take him awhile to get the hang of it but I hope he enjoys it once he does!

International Fleet Review

The boys and I thought it would be fun to spend a Saturday in the city during the International Fleet Review.  Unfortunately it wasn't as exciting for the boys as I thought it was going to be - but we still enjoyed ourselves.


First came the planes flying in formation...



Followed by the helicopters...



And lots of boats in the Harbour to admire...

More Library School Holiday Fun

All three boys enjoyed the games day the library held - particularly the game of musical chairs!
