Peanut Butter Cookies


Mouth-watering bites of yumminess with a nutty crunch. You can always use smooth peanut butter if your prefer them a little less nutty.


Play Time


There are days when, for whatever reason, it is just not possible to take your children outside.


If they want to play indoor ball games, you could use a scrunched up ball of paper. Try cricket using a table tennis bat, and rounders with a ruler. Also, do “saves” using the sofa as a goal. Other possible games are lobbing the ball into baskets, and knocking small plastic fi gures off tables.


(Obviously you will have moved your breakables).


Keep old sheets, blankets, boxes and clothes horses for den and fort building. Adults may be roped in to play the enemy, or big bad wolf. Be prepared to leave the structure up for a day or two. Older children may want to sleep in it overnight.


Another game is to circumnavigate the room without your feet touching the fl oor, as if it is a sea full of sharks, and the furniture safe rocks. Kindly supplied by Wee Acorns Nursery
