Kids of Social Mums Say...

Every now and then mum will go off and meet up with some other bloggy folk and have a great time.  She will come home talking about all the cool people she met and the fun things that she got to do.  Well finally mum let us come along to a bloggy day - we went to Social Mums Say at Fed Square.

I overheard mum tell dad that if we thought it was lame that we could go hang out in the park and she would have fun with Milla.  Well I am happy to say that I had a great time and didn't want to escape at all, I could have stayed even longer!

The highlight of the day for me was hanging out and using all of the Micador products.  I decorated a folder that will look awesome in my new bedroom.  Who knew you could have so much fun with a folder and some washi tape!
Once I finished decorating my folder, it was time to try out the Clouds Modelling Foam.  I loved playing with the foam but because so many kids had played with it all morning, the colours were all mixed up.  I fixed that - I started to sort it out into colours so that the other kids could play with it properly.
OCD much?
Even Milla liked playing with the Cloud Foam and sorting it into proper colours!

It seems OCD may just be contagious!

Thanks for a great day Kids Business, I hope mum drags me along to another blog event soon!

PS - shhhhh, don't tell anyone but someone may just have smuggled home some Clouds modelling foam so the fun could continue!
I said not to tell anyone!

Keep Out! - or what to do with Post It Notes

Sometimes people like a little privacy so we thought that we would help Nanny an Poppy get some privacy.







Do you think our sign will work?

An Extra Long Weekend

After a hugely busy weekend walking for miles and miles and miles, as well as eating heaps and heaps of birthday cake, I really needed to do something a little more relaxing.  I settled in for a quiet afternoon of craft with Chloe.

Mum was feeling particularly brave - she let us use her sewing machine.  We all made cuddly colourful butterflies.  
I love creating beautiful crafty things,

Them's the Breaks

Well by now everyone knows that my best friend has a broken wrist and I have a broken elbow, but did you know that another on of our neighbours has a broken shoulder.  

It has been pretty good having someone else who has to stay home from school too, but I think that she has had more fun making toys with mum for everyone we know who is about to have a baby with instead of watching movies with me.  
I wonder if they will give me a toy to cuddle too?

Anyway, luckily she is really good neighbour and she likes sharing.  She has brought over some of her movies and she has even more movies than I do.

By the time my arm is better, I will have watched 3 bazillion movies!

Flying

Grandma gave me a box of paper planes for my birthday.  I get to make one paper plane for every day of the year, it is totally awesome.

Check out a few of the planes I have made so far.

Only 300 and something more planes to go.

Making Toys

AJ and I are making our own toys.  It isn't because we don't have enough toys (because mum says we already have 'far too many'), it is because we want to learn a new craft and sewing looks like fun.
I am making a crazy dog.  It came in a box with everything I would need, even a kid sewing needle.  I tried to sew the button eyes on the dog and then needle got stuck.  When mum tried to get it out she snapped the needle.  Now I have to finish the dog with a really sharp pointy grown up needle.

I hope I don't prick my fingers too many times.
