Joey and the new aviary: We have a new budgie, Joey, who is shortly to be joined by another young budgie - thanks to Ruby's mum, Nita. Joey gave us a big fright on Friday. He is so little that he managed to squeeze out through the bars of the old cockatiel cage. Fortunately Rie was able to catch him, so on the weekend Irene and James bought a new mobile aviary (you'd be amazed at what can fit in Irene's Honda Jaz!).
Storage Box seat: We needed somewhere to store our new Timberloc construction set and on the deck was the obvious place. However, we didn't want to lose the seat on the deck so James agreed to make a locker seat. After several weekends of beavering away in the shed, we now have an amazing piece of furniture, complete with 'hobbit hole' in the end for children to access the construction set when the lid is locked.
Timberloc Construction Set: Several of our children are passionate about building so we have purchased this wooden construction set. Aimee (Workforce student) and our newest KIDSPACE kid, Anika, are busy oiling the wood before the children can play with it. Each piece slots together to make child sized constructions. Watch this space for more news on what the children do with it once all of it has been oiled.
