We had the Stofberg’s and Baker’s over for a get together today, and one of the things that I noticed was the change in how the children all interact as a group. I’m not sure if it is just a matter of having a bigger group of children, or if there is just a different dynamic when there is a wider range of ages, but the kids are starting to self organise and split off into groups, come back together and form other groups and carry on playing and having fun. The whole dynamic of it is just really interesting to watch.

Something else that I see regularly is how Grace likes to go walking along, singing a song, with a friend in tow. She makes up her own words for the song, belts it out and they play as they go marching around.

Thanks to Mike for the photos!

I’m not sure exactly why, but the trampoline seems to be the place to eat ice cream in our house

Food, glorious food!
