    Default What a difference the sun makes

    I must admit when it's as lovely s it is today it makes childminding easier.

    I have done nothing that we wouldn't normally do but the environment. Minder has loved the
    easel outside and being to extend to chalking on the patio.
    Den building also takes on a new dimension.

    Enjoy your day everyone

    We have a lovely sunny day here too but have been watching wasps, from a safe distance, in the garden. They are desperate for water and are gathering around pop-up sprinkler heads in the garden. The 2LO's are watching intently, not scared at all, and dropping more water on the sprinkler when it dries up.

    It's very welcome isn't it a bit of warmth from the sun. We've been painting outdoors on long rolls of wallpaper held down by tricycles etc as there is a slight wind.
    Everyone is so happy and agreeable.

    Lovely day here too.

    We've just pottered and free played outside all week. It's been lovely. I do need to get a bit of planting done but am enjoying the sun too much to actually do anything! ( and it's great to have a tidy house! Lol )
    Forecast is not good for tomorrow so really need to get sorted today!

    Hehe!

    Where were you? You should have just asked if anyone knew were i was! Hope you had a good weekend. It was good weather although the Monday was a bit grotty!

    I wasn't running! I was signing children in for the mile race and then I was out on the 10K course marshalling :0) I was listening to the band too.

    You'll probably have seen most of my mindees and lots of my parents running though!
