About 4 weeks ago I went to a home ed event and we learnt to make giant dream catchers.
It was quite hard and fiddly but I am pleased with the one I made. It hangs over my head in my bedroom and has only fell on me twice. I dont have nightmares so I dont know if it works.
This week we went to a National Forest to learn about birds and trees. The other kids were really noise so most of the birds were sensible and hid. The man tried to teach us about trees...it was boring.
We escaped and went and had a look around. This is the view from the lake.
It was freezing and very windy.
We all found a friend to play with and we all took turns threw sticks in the water for him to catch. Here is the main attraction.
It is basically to help people to remember the Irish men who died in 1916.
Today we learnt that in Japan it is 'Girl's Day'
We made some origami dolls and some orimgami Whales. (the dolls were a bit girly but fun when they were finished.

Hi Xander
It's so great to see you back blogging. I have missed your posts. I love your dream catcher and that dog is gorgeous and so is the lake. I bet the dog had a great time chasing the stick. Your origami looks great too. Nice whale.
Great origami dolls and whale.
A nice trip out to the lake, lovely pics.
Dream catchers do work, my daughter used to have terrible nightmares and we bought her one, she never had another one again. She's now left home and guess what is above her new bed? yes thats right her dreamcatcher.
