Ice slides all gone

I have had a lot of fun this Winter on the ice slides. At first I would only go with Mommy or Daddy. Then I learnt to go by myself on my tummy and even other children copied me. Then I learnt to go down on my bum. Then eventually I even went on the big slide by myself a couple of times, but I did hit my head once.

Yesterday we went to the ice slides again, but they were all gone. Mommy and Daddy talked to me a lot to explain that they will melt soon because it is Spring time now. I was a bit sad. But because I am brave and learn the lessons of life well and because my Mommy and Daddy explained it to me, I did not cry.

Here I am reflecting on this rather big change in my life.



Daddy promises me we can go to the zoo soon, now that Spring is here. They have a giraffe and a zebra now. I am excited.

New clothes

Mommy and Daddy took me shopping yesterday. We bought some new clothes. The shop is called Banana Mama, it's a shop just full of stuff for kids.


When we got home Mommy wanted me to try the clothes on, but I did not want to for quite a while. Eventually I did though. Now I like them.


This is my friend Ilias. When we first met, he didn't know how to play with me very well. Now we run around together and laugh lots. I like Ilias.

The big ice slide

This Winter has been a lot of fun. I have been to the ice slides lots of times. It is my favourite thing to do. I always get excited when we go to the ice slides. I have learnt to slide all by myself. I am very good at going on the small slides now. I can even sit on my bum now. Yesterday I was very brave. I went down the big slide all by myself. The first time I went down straight, on my bum and it was lots of fun. The second time I was a bit too excited and I went down a but crooked. I bumped my head. I was very upset. After crying for a while I went back to the small slides. Daddy wants me to try the big slide again. He said something about a horse. There were no horses at the slides though.

A cup of tea

These horses are having a cup of tea and something to eat. I arranged their dinner party.

I still like...

I still like the other Kraft stuff. I'm Canadian and Australian.

I like macalmenis and Kraft dinner.

I'm Canadian and Australian. My parents tell me that the Kraft company was founded by an Australian and a Canadian together. Australians like Kraft Vegemite and Canadians like Kraft Dinner. I like Kraft Dinner. I also like macalmenis.


(Footnote from the editor- Macalmenis is an extremely rare hybrid linguistics phenomenon. It is invented by children who have parents that make sure they speak their native English first. When Russian plurals such as "pelmeni" (a meat dumpling) are used in English they become "pelmenis". "Macalmenis" is a hybrid word from "macaroni" and "pelmenis".
Second footnote- The original company was called the "Kraft Walker Cheese Company". For some reason Vegemite was never tested on the Canadian public.)

Slides

When Mommy and I went to play school the other day we all went outside and played on the slides. I can climb up the steps by myself now.


These ones are not ice slides, but I still went down on my tummy. It's easier that way.

More Crafts

I think Mommy likes doing crafts. Today we made a paper doll and I put her clothes on, and her hats. But its still not as much fun as legos, so I went back in the living room to play legos. Mommy tried again with a new colouring book, and that turned out to be lots of fun. It has princesses in it.

Making Pom Pom Animals

Mommy took me to play school with some other kids. We made pom pom animals. Most of the other kids just made one, but I really liked it and stayed and made three. I put feet on the caterpillar to help him get around and if you look close you can see that the teddy bear has a bellybutton.

Ice slides

This Winter I have really enjoyed going on the ice slides close to our house. At first I was really scared. I haven't learnt to sit on the bum sled like other kids my age. When they go down, they have a smile on their face, but they are a bit serious about the whole event. I learnt that I can go down by myself on my tummy and it is lots of fun. Now other children are starting to copy me. Mommy and Daddy think this is really funny.
