We are enjoying our text books suggested by the Mater Amabilis curriculum. The girls have been working on:

Music, Picture Study, Reading and Writing, Maths, Earth Geography, Family Geography, Mapwork, Art.

As of the new term all 3 are doing weekly Gymnastics and Trampolining lessons and the 2 eldest also do Ballet and Piano lessons.

My 2 eldest girls, Ballet Girl and Monkey Girl (now 7 and 6) have rapidly progressed with their reading this year. They are both so excited by the fact and have read 'The Gruffalo' so many times to eachother, to themselves or to friends that Panda Girl (3) knows most of it by heart now :)

I'm back! I return to my blog after the birth of my beautiful darling son and a rather difficult year including 15 weeks on crutches, my husband's 5 month redundancy and the tragic death of his dear brother.

Playgroup Christmas Party. Ballet Girl and Panda Girl take to the dance floor early.

Monkey Girl loves craft. She spent the rest of the day covered in glitter.

" Panda Girl would you like Ballet Girl to go with you?"

"I do it on my own"

Delighted Monkey Girl:)

Ballet Girl's turn :)

Smiles!

3 Happy Ladies :)

Starting off the day with a bit of craft. Panda Girl's snowman is top left :) And some snowflakes by the 2 eldest.

I printed out and large collection of Christmas worksheets and activities for the girls to do. They have sped through them.  Panda Girl is learning the idea of mazes and her concentration is amazing!

Wrapping 'Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh' for the Baby Jesus.

All done.

Ballet Girl and Monkey Girl made some lovely jig-saws and Panda Girl placed the shapes on their matching space.

Dominique pairing up halved Christmas cards.
