Playmobil Matilda goes on tour!

Having performed in the playroom the other day, the show moved on to the kitchen yesterday.


The audience (foreground) and singers (each complete with a microphone in the shape of e.g knife, spoon, ice-cream scoop)

The band of musicians (hidden behind the camper van).

K & I watched The Winter's Tale on the Shakespeare - Animated Tales dvd (along with Twelfth Night again, as that's her favourite).  We, the three of us, also tried to play Phase 10 but unfortunately(!) my luck is holding (as M puts it 'You *always* win!' and to be fair it really does seem that way) and M is really struggling with that.  After a fairly spectacular strop, once she'd had time to calm down over some reading in her room, we had a cuddle and a talk about it and I think we agreed she wouldn't want me to cheat in order to lose, but it is difficult!

Finally just a few pics of my gorgeous girls, who may fight fairly frequently, but also do this:
