I had initially created the baskets with chickens in eggs. But when two of three children arrived wearing Dinosaur shirts it inspired a noisy DINOSAUR ROAR SOME Day !

Whilst exploring the gift baskets we practiced blowing and waving bubbles .

Matching Dinosaur baby to Dinosaur Mum. And refitting broken eggs .

Not every “weed” is a problem — some are quiet heroes. 🌿🐝
Dandelions may look simple, but they play a powerful role in nature. They feed bees when little else is blooming, help improve soil health, and add beauty to our world in the most unexpected ways.
Before you pull them out, take a moment to think —
what if this tiny flower is helping keep the ecosystem alive? 💛
Let nature breathe. Let the bees feed.
Let the small things bloom a little longer. 🌼✨

St Patrick’s Day Celebrations.
Rainbow painting and experiments. Searching for Leprechauns. Shamrocks. Irish music to dance a jig. Story time.

And this year we included planting fragrant Sweet pea flowers and companion plants Climbing Peas and Rainbow Chard. St Patrick’s Day noted in a gardener’s calendar as the best time for Sweet Pea rainbow flower success.
