We made kangaroos

Lots of brown cardboard and a little white cardboard, cut into circle shapes to create a kangaroo. We also used black stickers for the eyes. Our kiddie creations did not quite end up looking like our inspiration above but the children loved gluing the shapes and the mothers enjoyed cutting the circles, as they could still chat as they cut.

We made fruit salad

 
The parents had previously discussed trying to get their children to eat different kinds of fruit and not just stick to their one or two favourites, so this week we involved the children in making some fruit salad.
 


 
and a fruit matching picture game
and we read Handa's Suprise which is a delightful book about fruit,
amongst other things
and everyone had a happy morning.
