BB is feeling very autonomous these days! she draws, she tries to read books all the time, she enjoys watching language videos: first fun with french/spanish, and bonjour mes amis. She loves the magic school bus tv programme and pretends her little bus is the same one and it goes on similar adventures! I’ve read to her a lot usbourne starting science books. She loves to sing and dance. go girl!! She also is being rather horrible to SB – often with no cause or provocations – i guess that is strong willed 2, but not happy for SB to bear the brunt of it, so behaviour modification required [for all of us]
SB not quite so industrious [rofl] has done some maths, lots of playing with barbies, tidying her room of doom. when I have been at home [some of today] we read some books together – on castles and evolution. yesterday she looked at countries on the globe and maps looking where nana and grandad and now nanny and grandad have been/are on holiday. She’s watched some nina and the neurons. She’s read lots of books herself – likes enid blyton short stories a lot. She has nearly completed her mosaic suncatcher. that might be about it! Oh, she has finally got to the top of the rainbows waiting list – woohoo!
Is she on the Brownies list? She’d be due to go up at Easter if there’s a place and sometimes they take in the term of turning 7 so they may take her January if you ask – may not be worth doing the Rainbows?
SB is so ecstatic to be finally going to rainbows that prob worth the term!
woohoo to finally getting to the top of the Rainbow list! Hope that means she will automatically get to go stright up to Brownies in Feb?
What colour Rainbow? Clo will want to know!
oh, they have individual colours?? will find out on wed i guess
not all the groups wear coloured tabbards now, there’s been a new uniform for a while (think there’s a pic of Aprilia in hers on Flickr) but a lot of areas have quite rightly said it’s too ££££ for girls to grow out of so fast (and they shrink) and stuck with tabards. Aprilia has just about grown out of her leggings already but they aren’t being replaced!!!
Ah – yes. Only one girl has the full official Rainbow uniform as her parents work at John Lewis so got it at discounted price – the others all wear just the tabbard over normal clothes. Chloe’s is green.
