A lovely morning at Think Tank with Nanny and the children. I forgot my camera so no pictures I’m afraid but there was lots of recycling, bee keeping, playing at being a dentist/cafe owner/mechanic, water play, designing aliens, operating steam engines and lots more fantastically fun and educational activities We also saw this in the Planetarium, which both children were rivetted by, and Alfie was still discussing as he went to sleep We also saw Grandad this afternoon, giving me a chance to sort the home ed pizza making session LOL!

On the downside both children were very overtired today and we have had constant fighting and tantrums this afternoon. Holly tipped her dinner (deliberately) all over the floor and table, threw everything in sight and screamed her head off (admitting that she was over tired herself lol!) whilst Alfie just tantrummed about his dinner being disgusting and just wanting sugary stuff, then ate it all once Rich fed him at his own request (and this from a child who was BLWed and NEVER fed lol!). So, an early night and a skipped bath until morning. And a lot of reflection from me about the bits handled very well, and those bits where my unconditional parenting skills slipped a little…..
