A sunny day

After a lovely morning worshiping with our church in the sunshine we went to our allotment open day, where Acey went on a peter rabbit trail, and we spent time watering the plants with my beautiful mum

African bead art, abundant nature and a butterfly hunt!

This week we had a go at doing some African Bead art  from our 'My little Atelier' art box - which you can find out about here;


Acey started making a beaded picture of a mountain, and a necklace


We also happened to have some pretty African bead necklaces which we bought from a friend who helps women in Africa to sell them, so that they can pay for their daughters to go to school...They are very pretty


We have also spent a lot of time in nature playing with friends at Great Wood




We foraged lots of wild food including mulberries, blackberries, apples, and a wide variety of stuff from our allotment :)






To end the week off we went on a Butterfly hunt - we found a comma, a painted lady and LOADS of cabbage whites :)

Words with 'i' in the middle

Hours of fun and giggles thinking of words with an 'i' sound in the middle - Gosh, I love home schooling!





We have also been enjoying a new Elsa Beskow book (we love all her books) called 'Rosalind and the little dear'
It's very sweet.
