George is 5 years old!
He requested a Mickey and the Roadster Racers cake--chocolate with vanilla icing and Oreo filling
Janette sent him Explorer gear--he was thrilled!
World map for his bedroom wall from Aunt Julie & Debbie
His big gift from us this year was the RC Monster Truck he's been asking for
Richard and George went to Toyland with birthday money from Ruth (first post-lockdown visit to a toy store!) and George picked out this Playmobil police van
I gave George a build-your-own insect house kit and we assembled it together
George's home learning activities--this one had little segments on an earthworm with numbers in them, and you had to complete the number sequences.
They did a unit on snails and read "The Snail and the Whale"
George drew a map of Otley, with our house, the park, church, Toyland, Oxfam and Sainsburys
We did these little math sheets each day--I made up addition and subtraction problems up to 20
George made this Father's Day rosette for Richard--we got the idea from church's online creche activities
Another home learning activity--they had to build a castle and write about the 3D shapes they used
Measuring and playing with water, as part of his home learning
Great activity for a hot day!
On the day before his birthday, I had George fill out a favourite things list. I annotated some of it, but will try to do it again here. Colour: blue, Toy: remote control vehicles, Song: Shotgun (George Ezra), Movie: Turbo, TV show: Fireman Sam, Holiday: Beach, Food: Pizza, Game: illegible...Book: Skeleton Bones (the Funnybones series), Time of Year: autumn
