The autumn dance

Autumn inside activities 2

After the siesta the activities go on!

Finding the same...

Sticking the leaves on our tree...

'Joli! Joli!'

I thought lace or sew will be difficult for Amané...

but she was good at it and enjoyed it a lot!

I need to find more activities like that...

It surely comes from Hitomi's side!

Hitomi's mother and Hitomi herself

are so good for sewing!

Then making a mushroom...

painting a plate, write some rounds, cut them

and stick them to the paint...

Put the 2 sides of the plate on a toilet paper roll...

A beutiful mushroom!

Then I created an utumn little domino...

It worked well but was too easy for Amané!

Autumn inside activities

Since our week at Ylan's house

Amané was tired:

wanting allways and only mum, crying, not listening....

And 2 days ago she was really ill:

again infection in the ears, and 'angine'....

Dada and Didi helped us a lot again...Merci!!!!

Now, Amané seems to be in better condition

but we try to keep her in a quiet athmosphere in order

she can recover well soon!

This morning,

we did a lot f autumn activities I found on the web...

Yesterday, Amané was asking me why there were so many leaves on the ground,

and the last week we collected lot of autumn treasures so let's play!

Transfering leaves with a clothes pin

is not so easy for Amané!!

But we could talk about the colours and the shapes of leaves..

Sorting the nuts:

acorn, chestnut, hazelnut and walnut...

That's so esay!!!

We could talk about the name of each tree...

Opening ('WAOUUU") and tasting the nuts ("MIAM")...!

Sorting leaves by colours...

Easy, easy!!!

After we put each family of leaves

in a different place of our living...

We sang an autumn song 

(for French people, sur l'air de Frère Jacques:

'C'est l'automne -bis-, les feuilles tombent -bis-,

Partout sur le sol -bis-, C'est si beau -bis-)

and dance...

When mum stopped the song and said:

'RED LEAVES'

Amané and dad had to reach the right place family leaves place.

Then on coffee filter leaves put some colours...

 Put your colourfull leaves in water...

We'll put them on our tree later...

In a basket full of water:

-what is floating, what is sinking?

-with a strow, make the stuff sailing...(difficult!!)

The last activity was painting the leaves

with cotton bud....

hum........??????

Dad have to explain a lot......!!!!

Well finaly, it's more fun with fingers!!!
