Making pictures

Hello Wren

It is Saturday and no school to day! Hope you are having fun reading and playing with Leica. Here are some ideas of how to make drawings from things around your house - aren't they clever. Maybe you can think of some of your own ideas.

Fromage

Hello Wren

Hope you had a good day at school today!

This is  picture of our puppy Fromage - she is just like your Leica! She has long fur and just loves chasing a ball even if it lands in the dam - she will swim for it!

Lots of love from Granny Mouse

Lemurs at Monkeyland

Hello Wren

I was thinking of our visit to Monkeyland where we saw the lemurs - do you remember?

Watch this movie and see how cute these lemurs are.

Chickens at Tashdon

I remember you feeding our chickens with Aunty Donna. We threw bread through the wire and oh how they loved that. We even picked some green plants to push through the wire. Our chickens lay eggs for us everyday so we have fresh eggs for our breakfasts.

We so want you to come back and visit us!!!

Love from Granny and Grumpet

Well hello there my little Wren!

Hello Wren

This is Granny Mouse writing to you!

I will be sending you pictures, stories and fun things to do so ask your Mum or Dad to show you this letter.

Did you know that your name means  - a little bird called a Wren? Here is a picture of one.

Can you see birds in your garden? Dad knows their names so ask him to teach you. We have seen birds flying in the sky over your house. Do you remember us looking up at the sky together?

Birds lay eggs in nests. Do you know that they all build different shaped nests. Here are some of the shapes.

The birds then lay their eggs in these snug nests and sit on their eggs until they hatch into tiny chicks.

The mommy and daddy birds feed their chicks. Some chicks eat insects, some eat fish and some eat seeds.

When they are big and strong they learn to fly.
