Christmas Colouring-In


Today Riley was home sick and so rather than sit in front of the TV all day we made a concious effort to do some other activities. Yesterday I had a quick meeting with his teacher for next year, Samia, she is a lovely lovely lady and tells me that she is really excited to have Riley in her class next year (I bet she says that to all the mums.....). Anyway she was telling me what sorts of things he will be learning next year (a much more structured learning syllabus) and I noticed on her wall some Christmas art that her class had done during the week (these are all 5 year olds). It is a colour by numbers activity so it reinforces number recognition (this is something that he will be learning next year). She told me that she had a spare copy of the santa if I wanted to take one for Riley to do, so I did. He was so excited and I think he did such a wonderful job too that we both thought we should post it here. This is the colouring-in that he was doing when he was talking to Uncle Dave, Aunty Mandy and Aunty Little Bec this afternoon. Watch out for more Christmas art here.......
