...Into a little pot. the girls are excited to see what germinates next 😆.

We haven’t managed much in the way of ‘traditional’ learning this week, but in between all of the water play, we did manage to fit in some life skills. We have been taking care of and watering all of the seeds that.. #AngelmanSyndrome #SunflowerSeeds #LifeCycle

[Mum of an Angel @MumofanAngel1]

...we planted in pots, talking about what we have done to help the seeds grow, observing our seeds growing in our window greenhouses and recording our observations in our plant journals. The sunflower seeds have been the first to germinate, soon they will be ready to transfer...

...So it is what it is. Normal service will resume shortly...I hope.

I’ve lost my homeschool mojo ☹️. I have activities planned, but all Jessica wants to do is play in the paddling pool. At the moment I don’t have the energy or the enthusiasm to try and persuade her otherwise.... #AngelmanSyndrome #CoronaBlues #Homeschool

Practicing our numbers with a bit of sensory play this morning - 5 little speckled frogs 🐸, slime, some homemade lily pads and a log (just to confirm that it is a bit of branch, not a giant poo!) #AngelmanSyndrome #LearningDisability #PlayAtHomeToday #lockdown

When you can’t go on holiday, you make the holiday come to you. Still a tad too chilly for my liking but it won’t stop Jessica from enjoying herself. #AngelmanSyndrome #WaterBaby

As we are in the run up to Easter, we have been doing anything and everything to do with eggs ��. Jessica has thoroughly enjoyed getting eggstremely messy, Isabelle not so much. 😉😉😂

[Mum of an Angel @MumofanAngel1]

The girls have definitely been keeping me on my toes. In between the learning and physical activity, we have been crafting away like mad. Making use of what we have, making something out of nothing. #AngelmanSymdrome #TheLockdownList #PlayAtHomeToday #Homeschool #Easter #Eggs

...it’s not about the end result, it’s more about the journey and experience of creating your piece of art.

[Mum of an Angel @MumofanAngel1]

During this period of isolation/social distancing, we are going to be getting through lots of arts and crafts resources as I try to keep the girls busy... #Isolation #SocialDistancing #ToiletRoll #AngelmanSyndrome #ToiletRollChallenge #Coronavirus

[Mum of an Angel @MumofanAngel1]

.we went searching for them in the garden and then took them inside to paint them, using a toilet roll tube as a painting tool. The girls had lots of fun painting their flowers and as always Jessica’s flower was an abstract interpretation, but that’s the beauty of process art...

The activity had several purposes; to learn basic home-care skills, to learn responsibility of taking care of your toys, to make hand washing a more enjoyable activity in order to keep Coronavirus free, to keep the girls occupied for longer than 5 mins and to have some FUN!

Today we took some time to enjoy the much needed spring sunshine. Today’s activity involved an under the bed box, water, sponges, some dirty toys and plenty of bubbles... #AngelmanSyndrome #TheLockDownList #SelfIsolation #WeLoveSpringPlay #Coronavirus

... as she would also quite happily eat everything in the kitchen if left unattended, But thought she would overheat in a tiger outfit, so we have settled on dressing up as Sophie. The battenberg tights (leggings) didn’t quite turn out as planned, but they will do for one day.

[Mum of an Angel @MumofanAngel1]

Happy World Book Day everyone. Jessica’s favourite book at the moment is The Tiger Who Came to Tea. We briefly considered Jessica dressing up as the tiger... #AngelmanSyndrome #WorldBookDay #WorldBookDay2020
