The excitement for this week was the return of Nana - and for a longer visit this time - a WHOLE week. The boys were thrilled as they knew this meant lots more time spent with her.
Munchkin didn't waste any time and straight away started playing card games with her.
Of course, there were numerous games of Rummicub.
Monkey helped Nana make lots and LOTS of bread. We had a potluck at church and our contribution was a lamb curry, a pea and almond biryani, and lots of flat bread.
My husband's cousin came over one evening so he could look at one of his sons laptops, so the boys enjoyed an impromptu visit with one of their cousins and enjoyed playing a new board game that Monster found at a St Vincent de Paul store (op shop).
After School Craft Activity at the library with our best friends.
The crafts are really too simplistic for the older children (aimed more at the 5-7 year old crowd)
But after all the lockdowns and drama of COVID, any excuse to socialise is good in our books.
More voracious independent reading for Munchkin - and I'm slowly, ever so slowly, including more high quality books into our library bookshelves so he has better choices. I will also reinforce my term rule of no "fluffy reading" books - which for Munchkin means no Beast Quest or Minecraft books during the term.
Finally, we finished off this selection of junior non-fiction books through the course of our week.
