2014 Week 48 Day 5 – Tomorrow is 1st December, so, of course, from now on it is all things Christmassy. The boys started with advent calendars, colouring them in.  And then we went to get our Christmas tree! I am not sure if the kids had more fun getting the tree, or going through the netting machine!! [All activities  carefully controlled, of course.] And then the boys write to Father Christmas to ask for an Elf On The Shelf, whom they have heard so much about. All three wrote individual letters, and Alexei even drew a brilliant elf picture to go with his.
