Spider Mania

We didn't go to playcentre today as Zack and I are still sick and I didnt want to pass the germs around the other kids. We went to Manukau to have lunch with Mum instead...we just HAD to get out of the house.

Zack is still Spider Mad, so today we went shopping and Mum and I found him a toy spider. Its soft and squishy and looks real. It says on the box that it even feels real, if that's the way a tarantula feels its not what I expected. The only problem with Zack's new spider, is that Junior is in love with it too and keeps trying to take it out the back yard to either destroy or bury, so Zack can only really play with it when Junior is not around. Perhaps it will be a good "take in the car toy".



Tonight I started teaching Zack "Incy Wincy Spider" and of course he kept requesting it "again" and "again" and "again". My throat was sore before we even started so I only did about 5 rounds rather than the usual 10. He has been trying to sing it himself too...It goes something like this "Spider spider spider, wash" its really cute. He even tries to do all the hand actions...he is especially good at the "down comes the rain" action but that's about it. His rendition of "Twinkle Twinkle" is coming along more and more every day....I hope when he finally does get it that it is still as cute as his attempts now.

Anyway...Footballers Wives will be on soon, quick pick up of toys around the house and a coffee for me!

Later
