Day 2: The Big Build – The Foundations

We have been watching the builders putting down the foundations of the building today, marveling at their precision and teamwork as they carefully crafted the base for what promises to be an extraordinary space. Eon, the project manager, engaged us in thoughtful conversation, asking us all about what we wanted and how we envisioned using the room in the future. With enthusiasm, we shared our ideas, outlining our dreams for the space—perhaps a cozy nook for gatherings or a serene area for reflection. We expressed to him that while we were open to his expertise and suggestions, the most important aspect was that it had to be magical! We believe that this space should inspire creativity and evoke a sense of wonder, and we are excited to see how Eon translates our visions into a reality that captivates the imagination.

Jack went out and helped Eon and Mim measure the wood, carefully noting down the dimensions as they discussed the best ways to utilize each piece for their project. He asked lots of questions, eager to learn more about construction techniques and the importance of accurate measurements. Meanwhile, Ben wanted to have a look too, so Gemma held him firmly to keep him safe as they navigated the bustling building site. They both peered at the various tools scattered around, intrigued by the hum of activity and the sounds of hammers and drills, and they had a good look around, marveling at the transformation of the area and the teamwork it took to create something new from the ground up.

Valentine’s Hooting Owls

Today we made some lovely Hooting Valentine’s Day Owls for our loved ones. While we were making the owls we talked about who we love, Georgia shouted “I love you, Tracie” and Tracie explained it made her feel happy knowing that. We talked about how we all love each other, because we are a childminding family.

Fearne said “I love my mummy because I do”, then Georgia said “my daddy is my best friend.” When we asked Theo who he loved he didn’t make a peep. So Emma asked “do you love Mummy? Daddy? Pearl?” When Emma got to Thomas, Theo giggled out loud! We revisited the emotions we covered in an activity last week to explain how we express ourselves. Here are some of the finished Hooting Owls!
