Congratulations on your first mindee!

How about doing an All About Me book with him? Or, get some magazines together and do a montage with him of pics of things he likes from it? You could get some children's mags, tv mags, toy catalogues, holiday mags, etc? How about asking him if he would like to bring his favourite book or toy or DVD with him to share?

Sorry, can't think of anything else right now - it's very late! Ha ha!

I have 3 new children starting tomorrow:panic: . My children and I have been planning activities which will take us right up to when they are back at school. So hopefully it will be enough to keep them all occupied. I will let you know how my first day goes tomorrow evening if I have any energy left:laughing:

Do you want me to e-mail you what I've got so you can use it as a base?

I survived my first day with three new children plus my two. I got them to draw some of their favourite things (which was a great idea by the way). We made cakes and went to the park. Hopefully tomorrow will be just as good.:)
