Yesterday we headed into the Sydney Opera House to see "The Snow Dragon" ~ the kids LOVED btw ~ and it featured some food references like berries, mushrooms and a tasty looking apple and rhubarb pie. So, today I was thinking of baking a pie.... But then [oh goodness] I saw the crumble over on @nourishinglolaandsage 's feed last night. It got me good. So... I polled my FB page and 100% of the votes were for crumble over pie!!! The crowd has spoken. Hence, we "crumbled". To boot, we went on a suburban bushwalk with @parraparents today, stumbled across a mulberry bush... Low and behold our crumble has some token mulberries in it too.
Smells amazing!

![🎨 It's Berry Nice To Meet You 🎨

This week is #getcreativewith geometric shapes. So we made birthday cards. My 6yo's face lit up when she got my punny punch line, "Have a berry fun birthday". [I need to treasure it now because I fear the #eyeroll phase won't be far away.]
.
Geometric shapes, like triangles, aren't always easy to turn into circles. The wind also contributed to the puzzling nature of this activity. 🍃🍓🍃
.
Also....
These cards would team well with some berry scented play dough for a fun birthday gift.
Check out my blog on why I love scented play dough by google searching "sensory processing and playdough" ~ which also includes a link to my go to playdough recipe by @ohcreativeday
Check out @get.creative.with for all of this week's creative fun!

![👻MONSTER PLATTERS🎃
It is that time of year again.... #Halloween ideas are flowing thick and fast from #bloggers across the world. Each year I do this one with my kids. The one where we create a vegetable platter based on their #monster drawings. So cute! [Despite my husband's concern that they only draw happy monsters, I think they fit the brief]. 😉
Last night I was live on the @kiddipedia FB page talking about why I think working with children's imagination and interests helps them form a range of positive associations with variety. Halloween may not be your thing.... But if your kids think monsters, witches, mythical creatures or eye-balls-floating-in-jelly* are fun, embrace it. Check out my article on Kiddipedia releases today for 4 simple vegie ideas at Halloween.
And on my blog search -> "monster" to see my original blog post (from many scary full-moons ago) for turning your child's drawing into a vegie platter.
How do you think my kids did at breakfast today?
The monster eggs with green bean [aka monster fingers] for dipping were a fittingly-themed accompaniment. *eyeballs are not harmed in my jelly recipe.... But grapes are. They get very, very hurt.
