so far today lots of baking, made a sponge for SB and Maddy’s birthday cake – dairy free as well – so that children and adults at party can have choice of carrot cake or sponge. will decorate later. We have also made a banana cake- again dairy free, and without the nuts – for Melrose. SB very excited by the cakes today as she got to use the kenwood mixer.
We had a discussion why she can’t have diet coke, and why shouldn’t – so have set up a coin in the coke experiment! might stick some in vinegar and some in bicarb of soda, some in fizzy water an some in milk as well, so we can look and see what happens. [in fact SB keen to do that, so will press publish and do!]
We have then done 4 pages of explode the code. Very easily as well. As BB so taken by dolls, i have bought a really cheap little one from Tescos [I love tescos!] and she has been trolling around with that today. Also she has danced for us on the dance mat, and had fun making me link the maths cubes and pulling them apart again.
anyway, must be off to set up experiment and then make lunch!
sam is very excited about the party so I apolgise in advance if he is more loony than usual!
