Picking apples

Field for the Olympics and strawberries

A very productive day at stay & play and garden club.  We made a whole range of olympic junk puppets, and also puppets took part in story time and songs after.  We made up the story with the children, which (of course) ended on the olympic message, mate, 'It's more important to compete than to win'.

Strawberries are just turning red and juicy, and with a little weeding, lots of other fruit ripening nicely all over the garden.  Gardening tots also made Bob the Biker, the infamous pirate, among other Olympic puppets, as yet unnamed.  More puppet making tomorrow!
