Hever Castle

General 

Elliott was good today. The only time he got upset  is when he fell over and hurt his hands landing on a path. There is a small scrape on his palm but he calmed down quickly and was brave. 

Activities

After breakfast we drove to Hever Castle for a day out where we met up with Chas Loft, Billy Loft, Sid Loft and their Nan Sandra. We started the day on a really good adventure playground where they had a wooden castle maze:


After the adventure playground we had a picnic lunch in the grounds which was very nice and Elliott played hide and seek and "it" after lunch as well as watching the swans and ducks on the river:


After lunch we had a look around Hever Castle itself and there were lots of bedrooms and lots of pictures of Anne Boelyn who had lived there. After seeing the castle we went to the water maze which was really good fun and Elliott and Billy ran around the maze in their swimming trunks getting wet. After the water maze we went for a walk around the grounds and then finished our visit with another half an hour playing at the adventure playground. After we got home it was chicken nuggets and chips for tea and then it was bath time. After his bath Elliott finished reading his "Mighty Machines" Mythical Maze book. He read this very well and then did the quiz at the back of the book. Finally I read him some more "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" before bed time.
