Peanut and Little Man wanted to do some addition today....
Iish was having fun making designs with the bingo dabbers.

A few sticks and twigs with great imagination equals fun.

Iish and Peanut are pretending to ski...

Little Man is pretending to use a flint to light his campfire....

We are usually pretty careful about what we eat at Tree House but every Friday afternoon we have instant pudding as a treat...the older children love to make it on their own now....Little Man is watching to let Peanut know when the milk is at the 2 cup mark

I put out lots of Christmas colouring and bingo dabber sheets this morning...
The Play Doh gang

Princess sorted all the pieces of the shape sorter puzzle by colour before she put them all back on the racks.


The children have had a great time today with this bench...first it was the entrance to a cave, then..

a big wave for a dolphin to leap over,
and a horse.
