One Rainy Day

Entertaining two little boys on a wet, stormy day is no mean feat! They generally like to go to the playground every day so they had plenty of energy to burn. There is only so much sticking, pasting, story reading and running around the kitchen bench that one can manage. I resorted to an old favourite........hanging sheets and towels over the dining table and and calling it a cave. They always love this game. We enacted the whole of the 'We're going on a Bear Hunt' in that cave.



To make things just that little bit more difficult William had a very high temperature yesterday so I was reluctant to take him outside. We got the doctor's bag out and role-played a visit to the doctor. here William is applying a sticker/bandaid to his arm.


William is a very sociable boy and can generally be found using one of his many telephones.


As well as the cave we erected the inside play-tent and read a few stories in there.



This would have to be the boys' favourite part of the house. They are always clamouring to be allowed to investigate this part of the kitchen. Oliver likes to open and close the microwave door and William likes the appliance cupboard.


Some things never change! What child doesn't enjoy clanging the pots and pans together?
