Spotty the Lamb


Last week Isabella and Emily spent lengthy periods sharing their stories of when Spotty the lamb came to stay. They were very excited about the fact that they got to feed Spotty milk from a bottle, but also stressed the fact that they both missed her since her return to her owners.

After several days of hearing Isabella and Emily's tales of the lamb, I suggested they bring a photo to show their friends at KIDSPACE, which they were very eager to do, however there was a little problem, they had not yet been printed.

Today on arrival at KIDSPACE, Zilda, Isabella and Emily's mum, informed me that the girls were very proactive in reminding her about these precious photos, and suggested we view them from the camera instead, and that is what we did.

After setting up the laptop and camera, we sat down to view these much talked about photos, and before long a large audience had congregated around the screen. Isabella and Emily did a wonderful job of narrating as we flicked through the photos, and not only did we get shown Spotty, the girls very proudly told us a story about the time they stayed on a marae, and showed us the relevant photos.

It was wonderful to hear stories about the girls experiences outside KIDSPACE, and I thank Zilda for allowing Isabella and Emily to share some of them with us.
