Langley

With all the rain we have had this week, we put our winter coats and gumboots to good use! On Thursday morning we got all rugged up and went out into the big yard to hunt for some muddy puddles to jump in.
Declan - "My boots are under the muddy puddle"
Sofia - "Boots"
Leo - "Puddle and boots!"
We had so much fun jumping and splashing in the huge puddles but we did get very wet, so please ensure your child has at least 2 changes of named spare clothes in their bag for days like these. Please also return any spare ELC clothes that go home with you.

Our other highlight this week was making real ice cream! Since our ice cream shop is still very popular, our pretend play dough ice cream was not good enough anymore. We first thought about what we might need to make it:
Alannah - "Some  milk"
Riani - "Ice in it"
Sebastian. B - "Lime and chocolate"
We whipped 2 cups of cream and mixed in a can of condensed milk - just like that we made ice cream! Then Claudia said it had to go "in the freezer". It was so delicious we will have to make it again!      

Enjoy the weekend
