Oli the artist

The young Olimonster has been getting very creative lately; he's just learned to colour inside the lines, and has been painting a bit since the weather turned cold. Today, we started a project from one of his activity books. We're making a set of traffic lights, and Oli had fun painting the box with bright colours. We thought you might like to have a look.

Here he is, having a great time painting the box blue.

The serious artist at work.

A little bit of red to liven things up...

Working on the lights...

And a nice bright red for the post.

After cleaning up, waiting for the stuff to dry so we can start our next step: Glitter Paint!

Autumn adventures

It's that time of year when there are a bunch of crunchy, orange leaves around when we go for a walk, and Oli is learning all about the seasons. Autumn means we haven't spent as much time outside, but we've managed to spend a few moments in the garden when the weather has permitted. Luckily, we also have a bunch of inside activities to keep little monsters occupied.

The weeds don't stop growing in Autumn!

It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.

A bit of weeding isn't enough to tire out THIS little man.

Enjoying his sticker books - wait, is that where you're supposed to stick those?

Cheeky little sticker monster.

Settling in to watch a movie with Dexter.
