Ukulele Song

E and her dad went shopping and came home with a ukulele. E then spent the evening strumming along to made-up songs, like this one:

 

"We went to the ukulele shop

To buy a pink ukulele

They didn't have a pink ukulele

They had a blue one

 

We bought a blue ukulele

I've got the ukulele blues

Not the ukulele pinks

The ukulele blues!"

Building Furniture

Lately, E's favourite things to do are to go for a picnic in the park or to "build something". Whilst she likes her Duplo and her wooden blocks, she has been working on more complex projects including her new bed and wardrobe.
E's dad took these photos of her putting together the wardrobe:

Bang, bang, bang.

Checking her work.

Bang, bang, bang.

E was very excited to get pink furniture for her room. Pink is her new favourite colour. We bought the pink 'Mammut' bed and wardrobe from Ikea and just managed to squeeze all the pieces into our little car. (The girls and I caught the train home to leave space for it). We may have bought the matching drawers, but they were sold out.
