we've hit a little slump in some ways M seems happy to just do shorts bursts of things she is the sort of child who needs continual prompting - ie the garden she needs reminding to water it sometimes it's been hard to remember that, we were talking about it last night things at school have a start and an end things at home are mostly continual,so I am making a concerted effort to keep the interest alive in things like the garden - she hoed it yesterday and marvelled at the flowers growing,as there's been so much rain they've done well.
I've wanted to do yoga with her for some time we've done a few moves they are mostly ante natal moves that I know so I got a video of a little session once she relaxed a bit she seemed to enjoy it - the big problem of having a toddler to join in home ed is there is no peace time! D was busy drawing so I hoped he'd carry on he came and joined us which was sweet until he decided "words are boring" and started to attempt to entertain us himself! - next time yoga without a boisterous 3 year old!

I use them with my rye and my minded children during our circle times. You can make up your own routines from the different cards, and what I do to keep the younger ones engage is tell as story as I'm doing the movements, based around the names of the movements... quite wacky stories but it helps to keep the kids engaged.
