Things to make & do...

Besides focusing on our maths, this morning, we did plenty of making:
We made Breakfast bread:



We made Fudge:





And we made Beeswax polish so the girls can lovingly care for their Freshly sorted toys.
It was very simple to make; we melted some beeswax & olive oil (i used quite a lot of oil, as I wanted a more 'creamy' texture. You could try adding only a little oil & make 'polishing crayons' for your children to rub onto their toys & then buff with a cloth)
When all has melted together, allow to cool, then add a few drops of essential oils - we used mandarin, which is known as "the children's remedy" in France for its broad range of soothing effects.
Mix well & pour into a nice clean jar.



I intend to store this in a tiny basket, with some wee dusters & think up a lovely story to tell, as we do our polishing :)
Have a lovely day
