Elliott was really good in general today. He did get down hearted at one point during our afternoon visit to Old Sarum because he couldn't walk through stinging nettles like a ninja would, but after looking like he might get in a sad mood for a while his mood lifted quickly.
Activities
In the morning we went to Salisbury with Granny and Grandpa. We visited the toy shop where he spent his pocket money on a spiderman figure with motorbike and we went to Waterstones where he enjoyed looking at Lego Star Wars books. Then we went to Pizza Express for lunch where Elliott was really well behaved and had dough balls, pasta burro and a chocolate brownie for pudding.
After lunch we all went to Old Sarum to have a look at the castle and cathedral ruins. Elliott really enjoyed running around Old Sarum and seeing all the views:
While we were there we also had a chance to observe quite a lot of mini-beasts for his homework. He also persuaded Granny to buy him a cheap children's ring from the gift shop and seems very happy with his first ring. After we got home we wrote up the mini beasts we'd seen for homework and he also decorated the dog as in the toy shop we'd bought some glitter glue for doing this. He did talk a bit about Adam and how his dog would be better but we talked about how good his dog was (it is) and how winning isn't everything and if he'd enjoyed decorating the dog that was a really good thing. After honey toast for tea he had a fun bath and then read Harry and the Bucketful of Dinosaurs really well to Granny before bed time.
