Building fun

One of the first phrases DS1 uttered was "bud-de-daye", which was meant to signify "Bob the Builder".
Apologies for the free advertisement...


DS1 is older now, but tries to make cement with water and sand at the back of the house -- he knows there are other ingredients we do not let him handle, yet.



We have also attempted to build our own little Egyptian pyramids in the sandpit.


DS1 also ties simple strings in various locations, in the obvious hope that he will ultimately build a spiderweb-like structure.

Another old-time favourite is to use an old clothes-dryer, pegs and tablecloths to build one's cosy little hut. DS2 joins in with glee.









The rainy day option is often the set of blocks or wooden bricks.












Finding ready-made structures like old trees in the highest areas of neighbouring Greenwich Park is a blessing.
