School holidays: Day 4

Day 4 of the school holidays brought another Bunnings children's DIY workshop (why have we never done these before? The kids have great fun, the mess is not at home - YAY! - and it's FREE!). This time they drew pictures and then transferred their designs to a calico bag with fabric markers:

Apparently I need to iron the bags to seal the colours. I know there's an iron around here somewhere ...

Time for a little wander around the aisles, looking like they worked there:

We can never escape without a detour down to the playground at the other end of the building, and once we'd prised them out again we headed off for a short visit to Nanna's house. Home for a late lunch and then we were out again, this time to Kippax to borrow books from the library (and somehow a Ben 10 DVD made it into the pile too), go to the bank, do a little bit of shopping, and (of course) run amok in the playground:

Love the colourful autumn background - this is the best time of year in Canberra, as far as I'm concerned :)
