Our Christmas Elf on the Shelf

This year our Elves Holly Star and Angel Snow Flake have come to visit us again. They come from Santa to check that we are being good girls. While they have been here, they have been a little bit cheeky because they have been getting up to some tricks. We have found them brushing their teeth, having a bath, and also with their heads in the chocolate box - they are so cheeky!

We love our elves. Holly Star is mine and she is my favourite. On Christmas Eve they will go back to Santa.

My holiday - Atlantica Princess Rhodes

I know it's almost Christmas, but I am still excited when I remember my summer holiday. In the summer holidays I went to Greece and it was very very very very hot. We stayed at Atlantica Princess Hotel In Rhodes and there was a super cool swimming pool with a awesome water slide.Everyday at night time there was a kids disco and here are some of the songs. I loved to dance with my sister every night at the kids disco. 

I put these songs on this post because they are some of my favourite ones.Also at night there was always a theme at dinner. Some of them were Mexican, Greek, Chinese, Gala andIitalian. One of the days we went to the grand palace of the knights. We also went on a boat called a submarine where we actually went under the sea! We also went to the valley of the butterflies. Here are some pictures of me and boojam on our holiday. I would definitely say that Rhodes is a fun place to visit.

When we went to the swimming me and mummy did water aerobics. Me and boojam went to a kids club and when we played musical corners this is one of the songs that we danced to.

I loved my holiday in Rhodes. I can't wait for next summer!

  

The Magic Box

At school I have been learning about Poetry, including "The Magic Box" by Kit Wright. You can read his poem here. I wrote a poem about my own Magic Box and what would go in it. Here it is, I hope you like it.

The Magic Box

I will put in the box

Nice dreams bursting and flowing with happiness,

Secret memories that only I know about

And all the love of the world.

I will put in the box

The sound of fire birds chirping,

A magic stone that transports you to another land.

And tears of sadness from a miserable, poor country.

I will put in the box

Calmness from the calmest person I know,

The smell of the sweetest rose perfume that mums use,

And the sound of the harmless, gentle rain.

I will put in the box

God the father, the son and the holy spirit,

Candyfloss trees and a bright blue river with a chocolate one next to it.

I will love my box forever.

Hinduism Project

Three gods or goddesses

Hindus believe in three different gods Bramah the creator, Vishnu the preserver and  Shiva the destroyer and they all make one supreme god.

Aum sign

The aum sign is a special part of Hinduism because they often pray in front of them.

Puja

Puja is a special time when hindus can pray. This involves a puja tray, kum kum powder, a spoon, lamps and incense. 

The story Hindu children are told a story about salt and water that is supposed to tell them that just because you  cant see the gods does not mean they are not there.

I Love Frozen!

I love the Disney film Frozen. It is one of my favourite films at the moment. I want to be Elsa because she can freeze things. Here are some videos of me and my sister singing songs from frozen. We hope you like them! Please leave us a comment if you do.

Making Gingerbread Biscuits

Today I have been blogging about gingerbread biscuits on Mummy's Blog. You can find my post here.

Peace Pagoda

On  Saturday when Mummy was at work, I spent the day with Daddy and Boo Jam. We went to the Peace Pagoda in Milton Keynes. It was built by some Buddhist monks to inspire peace between everyone. It was very peaceful, and beautiful. I loved exploring it.

After our visit, we went on an adventure in the outdoors. I had a good day.
