Today we had a full day of pancake making with the girls. It was really fun, we set up 3 stations - mixing, cooking and toppings. The girls all got a go at cracking an egg, pouring the milk or quite a lot of stirring. Then they watched them being cooked and got to pick which topping they wanted. There were some interesting combos, my favourite being one girl who wanted sugar, chocolate sauce, banana...and cheese!
So...first we measured the flour...
and stirred...
flipped the pancakes...
added the topping...
and enjoyed!!
it was a really fun day and the girls loved it!
Trips wise we had a big trip to Bangkok zoo last saturday with 7 children, which they really enjoyed, though it was really tiring and most of them slept all the way back.
We've done another few trips out for ice-cream after work with some of the girls.
Next week we'll be swimming with 5 girls - so we all wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who's sent out costumes, arm bands and goggles. We're well kitted out now!!
Weather wise it's really hot now, a few people have said its as hot as april now which is Thailand's hottest month. In our fan aired house it sometimes feels like a hair dryer on you instead of a fan!
Today after work me and Ben cycled over to Nichada for a run, a swim (though i looked like i'd already had a swim after the run!) and then for dinner with a family we know there. Tomorrow its the weekend so some of us are heading to chatachak for some tourist shopping, not sure how long we'll last in the heat.
Sunday we're taking 4 of the cerebral palsy girls to church. Then we'll probably head for a swim in the lovely pool at nichada afterwards.
Then its on to the next week!! xxx
