This month’s Whizz Pop Bang magazine is called “Sugar Rush – The Science of Sweetness”. As usual it is jam packed with fun facts and activities, but the main “doing” tasks this month were three low sugar treats to make. With exactly three to make, it helped me immensely as there was one for each child!! First up was our …
Christmas Robins
As we don’t have a scheduled week of nature curriculum this week, we have turned our nature journal attentions, to this iconic Christmas bird. We have a really friendly one in the garden, who feeds on the feeder, sits and watches the children play, and fearlessly pecks at the ground I am digging very close to me. However, he doesn’t …
Whizz Pop Bang & 12 Edible Experiments, Yum Yum!!
We have just whiled away a winter’s afternoon, having our brains blown by science. Our Whizz Pop Bang magazine arrived late yesterday, and thanks to the email that arrives with the shopping list prior to the magazine being dispatched, we were fully stocked up with necessary supplies for this month’s experiments…..we have lots of time to get our supplies now …
Whizz Pop Bang and Super Structures
Our Whizz Pop Bang magazine landed yesterday from the UK, courtesy of grandparent post 🙂 So, desperate to jump right into it, I promised the little lady she could have a go at the experiments this afternoon. Usually, I set up all three doing it, but I could sense it would be easier (as it was quite intricate) if she …
Culture and Language…..
Just reposting this mornings blog after technical problems…hopefully all sorted now….not my strong point!!! It goes without saying that we are going through a huge learning curve with both language and with the way the Swedish behave. It is clear we are going to have to get rid of some of our British habits. One of them is saying “Hej!” …
Cultural Habits and Language.
It goes without saying that we are going through a huge learning curve with both language and with the way the Swedish behave. It is clear we are going to have to get rid of some of our British habits. One of them is saying “Hej!” (hi) to everyone you walk/drive past. In the UK, especially children, we walk past …
Back into a Routine…Kind of!!
Today, Dadda headed back to work after a week off to move house, and we aimed to try and get a bit of a routine back, around doing our final bits for the house, and admin jobs to do with moving country. Today’s main task that had to be worked around was the delivery of a sofa bed for our …
Solar Ovens and Some…eerrrmmm….Painting!
Today we needed to have some light fun and a distraction from yesterday’s events, so I had a couple of things up my sleeve. First up was the last task that we had to do from Whizz Pop Bang, making a solar oven. Our little lady set to work with the instructions while I got down to some Mamma jobs. …
Whizz Pop Bang-Spy Science.
As well as amazing facts and articles on other subjects, this months issue is largely based on forensic science and some planets and stars information. As the day brought pouring rain all day, we decided it was the day to do the activities from the magazine…well all except the solar oven one!! So with today’s moving missions being, Dadda leaving …
Whizz Pop Bang Mamma’s Day
Uh oh….due to having had such a hectic July, with a manic trip to Sweden to decide our future and then dealing with the administrative fall out of emigrating in a short period of time, August’s Whizz Pop Bang was on our doorstep, reminding me we still had three things left to do in the last issue. As it was …
