Car boot sale

General 

Elliott was good today.

Activities

In the morning we left early to go and help at the car boot sale at Hawkedon. Elliott helped me direct the cars with sellers to where they could set up selling from and then helped me on the barbeque making bacon rolls. Mrs Wheeler then asked if he wanted to go on the computer in her classroom while I carried on with selling bacon rolls so he went on Purple Mash and made some presentation slides about animals. After I'd finished helping we had a look round the sales and found some very cheap Ben 10, Doctor Who and Star Wars toys. After we'd bought the spoils we headed home and he did the first lot of his homework before playing with his new toys. We had roast pork for lunch and he had broccoli with his roast potatoes. He made a little bit of a fuss about eating it but not a lot and then he just got on with it.

After lunch he did another lot of his homework before we watched Blue Peter and got his Mondrian picture ready to send to Blue Peter. Then we headed out to the skate park on his scooter and posted the picture to Blue Peter on the way. After some very confident scootering in the skate park with his highest jumps yet we headed for The Ship to meet up with Andrea and Graham Jenkins. We watched the end of the FA Cup semi-final with them because they're Crystal Palace fans. After the football we scootered home for luncheon meat sandwiches before his bath. After his bath we looked up facts and knowledge about Amsterdam on the iPad for his home learning before he brushed his teeth, read some more of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and went to sleep.
