Water Play, a book and a gift...

Take a bowl of water, a Pimms jug, various things to pour water in and out of - add 2 children and you have yourself a jolly good time!
Loopy deciding what to use to transfer the water from the bowl to the table



The Pimms jug was the largest jug and Loopy used other smaller pots to fill it


Once at the table a selection of bottles, pots, jugs and funnels to experiment with


Fonzy deciding what jugs/pots to use to fill the empty boxes


Once the boxes were filled, it was time for water foot prints on the patio


Another lovely book has landed - lots to read up on!


And now to the gift...

When we go into our local ELC Fonzy loves to play with the sand/water table that they have there.  Priced at £36 though it has been a bit expensive, however after seeing just how much fun was had today by both, how they co-operated and shared I decided to bite the bullet and buy one.

However Gran and the Universe were once again listening/watching... yet again the dump has come through top trumps!


This little beauty was stuck under a pile of bikes, it is grubby, it was full of sand and it does have a lid more importantly though it was ours for the princely sum of...
£3


They couldn't wait for it to be cleaned & emptied before they got stuck in.

Another successful day outside, time to go and finish up the tidy up, put the toys into the new play area, created in the space that was made after the tidy up of the shed and the clear up of the garden.


Pics of that to follow...
