They were into board games early today. Junior Scrabble and Whoosit (Guess Who). Grampy turned up for a visit so they showed him their milk/food colouring experiment and that moved on to discussions about light and colour. Nathan asked Grampie how many times he'd been around the sun and he answered correctly but loved the question.

Out came some letter bingo cards I'd made up a while ago to help Danielle learn the letters and they wanted to play a game of that using the scrabble pieces - so I was the caller of the letters and each of them and Grampie had a card to fill in.

Reading more Heidi (about 2/3 through now - Danielle seems to only tolerate 1 chapter at a time).

Nathan was asking me about some numbers on the packaging of a tent that Simon had bought us a few nights back. So I introduced him to the concept of 50%.

Off to a BBQ with friends for the afternoon (despite the miserable wind and rain). A late visit in to Nannie and Grampie's on the way home.
