Day 4: weekend blah and unexpected bonus

Weather: overcast and showers in the morning, humid and dry in the afternoon.
Children: just the two year old.

Again, a very slow start to the day due to two hours overnight up with my toddler.  Going to need a new plan for these nights!  A friend called in the morning asking for my daughter to come over and play - she was gone for the rest of the day!  We also realised that the TV was off all day.  It is much easier to do this with two relaxed parents.

Morning:
  • Children driving each other crazy, a little of the BBC science pages
  • Drove off to the playdate and stayed for a coffee.  The two year old instantly found a bunch of medical toys to play with.
Afternoon:
  • Playing in cuba mall: watching the bucket fountain and playing on the slide
  • Playing in the toy section of Farmers - pretending to dig with plastic shovels and much time spent on the giant display dollshouse.
  • Town library: getting stamps on her hand and riding the escalators
  • Supermarket with two parents (and therefore didn't have to sit in the trolley - ecstatic).
  • Pre-bedtime BBC Science class.  I investigated 'mathletics' for my six year old but it costs more than I am willing to pay.
