Picking blackberries and collecting conkers

Over the last few weeks we have had some nice hot days. We have been for some great walks. We picked lots of blackberries on one walk and made an apple and blackberry pie with them.








Isla loves pushing Evie fast on the fire engine and Evie loves going fast!




Isla's cocoon which we have had since it was a hungry caterpillar on our nasturtium plant, turned into a butterfly! It was amazing.





Isla has been doing a lot of crafts each day. Here is her robot:


Isla and Evie went to a friend's birthday party so wore their party dresses:




We had a walk by a river:



Back in our garden:




We made a rainbow sun catcher by mixing glue and paint. Isla painted onto a baking tray. We left it to dry and then put loads more glue on before peeling it off when it was dry.



At the last outdoor playgroup, the theme was strawberries. Isla potted up a baby strawberry plant and decorated a label for it. We ate strawberries and had a strawberry themed story. Then both Evie and Isla had fun playing with red coloured rice with the other children. They also bought home some marigold seeds to plant, looked for woodlice and found some round courgettes. Here is Isla's strawberry plant:



At the start of this week, we met up with friends. We have also been collecting conkers a lot!
