Afternoon Chalk Art

Some afternoons drag on for us cause the girls want to go for a ride on their bikes to the school and I keep saying 'wait till Dad gets home, we can't go now cause Seffy's in bed' or 'it's too cold to go out today'.

Last week I had told the girls they could go for a ride when Daddy Joe got home, and dinner wouldn't be far away. While we were passing time (probably watching TV!), the girls got out the big pieces of chalk and Faith kept asking me to play hopskotch on the driveway with her. I finally went out and started to draw one for her, but then I realised she actually just wanted to draw pictures and write with the chalk. Turned out to be a fun little activity for us :)

Seffy stayed inside and went cross-eyed over his new bib while we drew on the driveway

Faith was so impressed that I could draw this. She kept going 'Wow Mum, you're doing so good!!! :)

Ella alternated between chalk drawings and coming in the sort, stack, order, throw, count her pile of buttons

Once again, Faith was impressed with her Mum's artistic skills

Ella tried to draw her own hopskotch and then did funny little hops all over the place.
