Advent and Christmas. And So It Begins.

This little man has tickly feet, especially when Mummy paints them :)

Rudolph

 For Advent the children are trying to do as many kind deeds as possible.  For each good thing they do they get to put a cotton wool ball in the crib (aka plastic box) for the Baby Jesus, in the hope that by Christmas Eve He will be warm and comfortable.

What Can I Give Him?  Give Him My Heart

The Boy made a cute, fluffy bauble for the Christmas Tree.

Clear sticky-back plastic inside a Christmas tree frame makes a fun sticking activity. 

Making mince pies

(with a few jam and lemon curd pies too)

 Tuesday afternoons are for libraries :)

Dinovember!

We managed to take some photos as evidence and here they are.
