North Yorkshire Moors

This week we have been staying in a small cottage on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors, and have been blessed by some fab weather.

It is somewhere we haven't really explored and feel as though we have only just touched the tip.  We have loved it.  We will definitely  be returning. Jasmin wants to live there...

Fab beaches, walks, countryside.

Jasmin has painted, paddled, collected shells and pebbles. We found Starfish,  read,  and completed jigsaws.  She also learnt how to play Ticket To Ride which is an amazing game.







 We found a small cafe, with an upstairs, where a lady was making hats.  Jasmin was in her element when the lady said she could try them on.xx

September: walks, war hammer, painting, friends, brownies

September has been lovely for Jasmin, her skating schedule is now early mornings meaning that she has much more free time.

She has started to play war hammer, prompted by her big brother Sam moving back home.  I think she loves the painting part the best, alongside making sure that all the space marines etc and castles look as girly as possible.  

Jasmin and Nat taking lots of care where to put war hammer  pieces


We have gone on some lovely walks and talked about shape poems, and autumn pictures.  Jasmin's first autumn painting.



We don't like spiders, but love the webs.  (well we like spiders but not in the house)

We had a fab walk with Bea and Joss.  It was lovely watching Joss and Jasmin make slides from rock faces.

Jasmin has also recently joined St Tim's brownies and loves it. It has quickly become one of her favourite activities.  She loves the singing, games, activities.  Perfect..xx
