For those eggs, we used only natural colours: Onion Skins for Red, Red Cabbage for Blue and Blueberries for Grey. (left in water and vinegar for 3 hours)

Labyrinthe

When it’s too hot to go outside and to early to go to the beach why not try to lost the children in a labyrinthe made with Kapla or Pencils ? Who knows, you may have some time for yourself while they are stuck…;-) Labyrinth

Moving twice in less than a year makes you want to dig roots somewhere and stay there. After regional Australia, we are discovering one city; Melbourne, and we are loving it.Image Melbourne

-Busy Summer-

This summer, we spent most of our time on the beach!

We have done a fair bit of gardening, and are now amazed by the amount of vegetables and fruits we are harvesting!

Painting was a favorite too!

and we made 2 crowns out of felt:

We played with peebles on rainy days:

We spent a lot of time climbing our Jacaranda

Have a good day!

Voici de quoi occuper les petites mains de vos enfants qui seront tellement fière d’offrir un collier de perles de laine entièrement fabriqué par eux. Avec un petit bout de laine non tissée que l’on trempe dans de l’eau savonneuse, il suffit de la faire tourner dans ses mains pour former une boule de laine compacte et la faire sécher. Avec une aiguille et du fil à broder, percer les perles de laine pour former le collier voulu. Amusez-vous bien!

The Children would be delighted to make a pretty necklace like this one, they just need to dip a little bit of wool into soapywater and turn it in their hands to form a nice bead of wool. Let it dry and then you just need to use an embrodery needle and some thread to pearce the beads and make the necklace. Enjoy!

-The Joy of a Circle Skirt-

November 21, 2011

Une chose est sure, toutes les petites filles ont besoin d’une jupe ronde qui tourne! Ma mini miss virevolte du matin au soir, elle adore sa jupe et je crois que je vais même en coudre une pour moi…Bon pour le patron c’est très simple, il suffit de couper un cercle de tissu et d’y ajouter un élastique. A vos machines, top départ!

Every little girl should have a circle Skirt ! My miss spins round and round all day long, I think I should sew another one for me…For the pattern it is really simple, just cut a round piece of fabric and add an elastic. Ready, steady, sew!
