Hello, it's the School Holidays!
Where's my middle-class checklist? I think I have attended to my childrens' every need.
* The Cherub attended a week-long morning swimming clinic, and the Climber a 2-day basketball one. Gross-motor development and general fitness : Check.
* Both kids attended a 3-hour Lego workshop. Fine motor-skills development and Learning : Check.
* Braved the hordes at Scienceworks where 4,000 people a day are visiting the Star Wars Exhibition. Culture and Brain Skills and Outdoor Play : Check.
(I have far more photos of the Cherub from this expedition because he clung to my hand and dragged me round. Every so often we'd come across the Climber, doing his own thing like mad with all the interactive stuff. He consented to come over to the Jedi/Sith dudes so I could borrow a light-sabre and take his photo. Meanwhile, the Cherub posed in front of every major character he could find. )
*Plenty of rest and relaxation (aka slouching round the house.) Check, check, double-check.
