Outings in the sun

 Last week I went to visit Rotary park in Maungatapu. We sat and played eye spy, talked about all the things we can see and hear. We could see a lot of water, trees and houses in the distance. I talked about how I use to balance on balancing beams when I was younger. I love telling my friends about all my childhood memories.

Sensory

 

I used my muscles when we went on a bear hunt, we went through the grass, through the mus, through the snow storm and then into the dark cave where we found the bear. 

Then we went on a journey across the world to see other rivers and talked about where other people travel to

Outing!

Last we went to Hammond street reserve for a walk. I had never been there before so it was fun to go and explore somewhere new. 

 

Sensory session

 

I enjoyed putting my hands in the cold water, it was refreshing. We held cold ice cubes and warm flannels too, but I like the cool water

Hash Browns

 Today in cooking we made Hash Browns! I helped get the ingredients and mix it up. It was quite lovely but I only needed one.

Memorial park

Last Friday we had such a fun session visiting memorial park with my outing group. I found a nice bench in the shade and looked out at the view. Before long I had a whole group of friends around who wanted to sit with me too. It was nice to sit and chat and enjoy a beautiful summer day with the people I love. 

 

Sensory

 

We explored so many sounds like the doonk and the thunk of the typewriter,  the thumping of the windows closing, and the pssssh of the fountain and the hoses outside. There are so many loud and soft sounds around us

Helping out

I have been helping out around at Arohanui. I usually sit and read my book but yesterday I was feeling extra generous. I am very good at cleaning.
