What shall we do today?

Well its school holiday time and kids are bored. I have been browsing the internet looking for inspiration and there are some very talented people out there. Following their examples I've decided to give a few things a try.

Todays first challenge was making sugar crystals.  Its a long task supposed to take at least a week but well we made the sugar solution and set it somewhere sunny and now we have to wait and see.

Challenge 2: make chelsea buns to say thankyou to our lovely neighbour who has blessed us with beans and plums from their garden.

Challenge 3 : mice !
I have been promising the children to make these for ages. Not bad for their first attempts at sewing ( aged 4 and 6 ).

Challenge 4: T-shirts.
We took some old t-shirts , apples and potatoes to cut out shapes and a bit of fabric paint. 2 very pleased and proud children.

 Now for a rest and researching some plum recipes to use up all the plums we've been given.
