Today Martha and Ivor asked nicely for Pizza. Unfortunately we didn’t have any, so Martha thought it would be good to make one from scratch! This is how they did it…
Both children said it was so tasty, Tracie couldn’t try it because they wanted to eat the lot! Cheeky Monkeys!
Martha made a lovely mask of a Unicorn. Martha spent a lot of time carefully colouring between the lines and adding some green and gold glitter.
Wow, Ivor you have made a lovely Ladybird mask! Very shimmery and shiny.
Yesterday, Tracie went to cut a watermelon into wedges for snack time but it rolled off the surface and smashed up. Everyone gasped, then started laughing!
Tracie decided to take the hard skin and pips out of the watermelon and use it to make lolly ices instead! We put the fleshy fruit into a bowl and mashed it up, then we put the watermelon slush into lolly molds and put it in the freezer.
Today, it was a very hot, sunny day and Ivor asked if he could have his lolly ice.
All the children loved them. Ivor asked if we could make them again, Martha suggested not to let it fall again though!
We have been looking on the internet for labels for our plants. We didn’t like the ones we saw so Tracie decided to make some. First she asked her brother, Jonathan to slice up a big log. Then Tracie sanded them all smooth so they wouldn’t give anyone splinters, and so she could paint on them.
Once they were ready for painting, we all sat around the table and decided which ones we needed making first.
Ivor wanted the tomato one, Martha the Cucumber, Fearne wanted Lavender, Poppy the Garlic and Tracie thought a salad bowl would be good for the raised bed that has everything we love eating as a salad.
As soon as the paint had dried Tracie took them outside and sprayed them all with varnish to protect them from rain. They all looked very good and we cant wait to make more.
The Rangers worked together to celebrate St. Valentine’s Day.
To start the day everyone had Tracie’s special sugar-free pancakes, then the Wanderers and Rangers made healthy heart burgers for lunch and amazing cupcakes for pudding!
The Wildlife Rangers made Sausage rolls using minced pork, seasoning, puff pastry and butter to brown. (Not liking egg!!)
Chloe loved her sausage roll but thought it would taste nicer with BBQ sauce! Poppy made hers with Quorn mince as she is vegetarian.
We made some amazing sugar-free waffles for our breakfast! Everyone took it in turns to whisk the eggs until they were light and fluffy. Then we added the wet ingredients into the dry. We used the hand mixer to make the ingredients into a thick batter. Tracie then poured the batter into the waffle maker and cooked until golden brown.
The waffles were absolutely delicious and got a thumbs up from everyone!
The children all made amazing bath bombs for their mummies for Christmas. They got to choose the colour, glitter and fragrance. Then they helped Tracie mix the ingredients together, put into moulds and once set, make up the lovely cones.
All the mummies thought they were lovely.
