My holiday

My holiday was fun we camped at a farm called Willowbrook  Farm. We got to pat and feed the sheep, 3 cows and alpacas. There was a goose, 3 guineafowl, chickens and a dog.

Sunday we went the beach where we saw seven dolphins playing  close to the shore . We couldn't play on the beach or swim because there was too much seaweed.

On Tuesday we went to the Pinnacles.  They were very interesting.

On Wednesday we went to the gravity centre , where I  learnt  that magnets are interesting. I climbed the leaning tower of Gingin, it was very high.  We threw a balloon filled with water to test Galileo' theory.  My balloon was the smallest , but it made the biggest hole. 

 

 
 
We looked at bugs through a microscope.

We walked through the bush, to see the solar system, where we also saw kangaroos.


 

 
 
On Thursday we packed up and came home.  On our way home we went to the East Coast Honey Farm.  My baby sister had an allergic reaction, so we did not stay for long.  There was an observation hive that we could watch the bees, and we learnt some bee facts.
 
We tasted the honey, had some ice-cream and bought some presents.
 
I learnt a lot on my holiday.

Birthday Party preparations

My reader this week is "'B' is for Betsy" and in this chapter she had a birthday party for her friend, so I am planning a birthday party for myself, my birthday is only in June. 
For us to have a good party, we need to have a party plan.

  •  First I am going to think of the theme and I have chosen the Disney frozen theme.
  • Second I am going to make a guest list and then  I am going to write out my invitations.
 
  • Thirdly I  am going to choose my games. I have chosen musical parcel, musical statues and pin the carrot on Olaf.
  • We are then going to watch the movie "Frozen", and then do a frozen craft, example a snowglobe or a painted shirt.
  • Fourthly I need to think of snacks.  I was thinking of popcorn, chips and dip, snow jelly, snow man cones, hot dogs, pies and a fruit platter.  Drinks will be homemade punch and milkshakes.
Finally I need a birthday cake, with nine candles. My mom makes the cakes, so will post pictures when it is my birthday...
