Teamwork

General 

Elliott was good today although at tea time he wouldn't eat broccoli for some reason and I know he eats it when he's with you. We tried to persuade him it was very fresh but in the end gave up rather than trying to force the issue too much.

Activities

In the morning we went to football which was really good. Elliott did really well, joining in for every exercise in the session and when it got to the game he didn't get upset about passing. In fact he played really well passing to Adam and Charlie a lot and scoring a few goals. They even scored a real team goal where he tackled someone, passed it to Adam, Adam beat someone and then passed it to Charlie and then Charlie scored. We talked afterwards about how that goal was like the teamwork of The Octonauts and how teamwork is a great thing.     

In the afternoon we had a lazy time and he watched the whole of Return Of The Jedi and wasn't scared by The Emperor - something he pointed out a number of times saying he was scared of him when he was 4 but now he was 5 he wasn't! We also went in to the flats garden and played lots of different made up ball games ("handball football", "goalkeeper", etc, etc). We had Roast Beef for tea and he didn't want his broccoli but did well with roast potatoes and beef.
