Cbeebies.co-operative play!
The girls have suddenly discovered cbeebies on line. Not quite sure why they haven't demanded it before - tbh, I think I've been remarkably successful at keeping them off my computer. However, now we have a separate machine for them to beat up on, I figured it was time to start the ICT part of our curriculum. :P
And, not surprisingly I suppose, both D and T have taken to it rapidly. D's mouse control is obviously much better than T's, but I discovered they were actually
taking turns at doing things today. I stood in the kitchen, peeping through the doorway in total disbelief as D pointed to the screen and told T where to point and click, and then she took control of the mouse and did another bit, then gave the mouse back to T, etc. I was stunned.
So, ICT seems to be a popular subject in this house. Will be doing more of that I think. See if I can get D writing emails to Nanny in Birmingham.
We also popped into town - managed to catch the bus at the time I was aiming for, which was another bonus. Knackered F completely - she slept for over 2 hours once home. Whilst we were out, we picked up some onion sets, a packet of black pansies and some more sunflower seeds (at D's request). Like we need anymore ruddy sunflower seeds... lol
Oh - have just remembered where I hid a large envelope of seed I bought a couple of months ago and 'forgot' to tell DH about... better sidle over to Muddy Musings and update that list. :D
