We've had the boardgame Cluedo for quite a long times, since we were given quite a few by a friend of my mum's. Cluedo had been firmly rejected from the start, however, because K does *not* like death, dying, killing or murder. Yesterday, though she decided it would be okay to give it a go on the condition that Dr Black is not 'murdered' by Mrs Peacock with the candlestick in the study (or whatever combination you happen to choose), but was 'tickled' by the person with the implement in that room. It has quickly become a favoured game. Both A and I have felt somewhat cheated when after having accused and looked in the little envelope, confident in our assertions it turns out that either K or M had one of the cards and had not noticed when we'd asked them previously, but with a bit of practise I'm sure it will improve. This afternoon M did the following sketch while we played and (I'm rather shocked by this) has said I can show you on blog! She showed me before she coloured and I could tell immediately who it was supposed to be.
Earlier this week, Thursday I think, K made the fairy below and asked me to share it on blog. She was given a book/kit for her birthday a couple of years ago and has made a few of them since. The one below was done entirely by her except for the top the fairy's wearing, which she asked me to do. I think it's rather cute.
