Brum brrrrrum!


We went to the transport museum in Coventry a couple of weeks ago while Edan and others had their half term break. I thought Peter would be fascinated by the cars and buses. He didn't see them all, but took it all in his stride really. He was really tired though as he wouldn't go to sleep! The thing he loved more than anything though was all of the toy cars. He really wanted them! Actually, when I just showed Peter this picture, he gasped in wonder as he did when he first saw them - a sort of "WOW!"



Peter liked the bikes. He kept standing by this penny-farthing trying to get onto it. Doesn't he look diddy on it?




















We finished off in a play space including some soft blocks that were shaped so that you could make your own car from them. Hannah was chief designer when it came to this. She suddenly gets so animated in these situations and her creative energy runs wild! :o)


We had just about everybody in all together. Peter mostly just got knocked down a lot by people walking around by big blocks, or jumping and landing on him, but he held up fairly well!





I was exhausted by this time, but had a go too after sitting down for a while. So this is my racing car, made for Rebekah, with Rachel as the expert driver.
