James I of England and James VI of Scotland is how we began our Stuart work today: a quick discussion of why he was given the crown and then we dive-bombed straight into reading about the discontent of the Catholics - or was it a protestant conspiracy? - and Guido (Guy) Fawkes and the almost-explosion of the House of Parliament.
The Boy loved our printed picture version and beyond anything he loved role-playing the whole thing with the masks. I've left it all out for him to play with and he helped himself today, resting his wasp-stung foot which has now become infected :( We visited the doctor this morning and he's on antibiotics, meaning no trampolining class allowed today, but hopefully it will result in a less swollen foot over the next few days.
Play-do fireworks
My Boy's wonderful contribution.

'Make your own Puck'. The kiddies had fun designing Puck from A Midsummer Night's Dream
Tramplolining lessons, home for dinner, an evening trip to the park and then playing in the dark with friends - is how we finished our day :)
