Amita's Parenthood Predictions

Amita has been telling me some wonderful things that she is going to do for her kids when she is a Mum. She usually makes these announcements after I tell her she can't have or do something. I thought I'd keep track of them here so that I can remind her of these when she is a Mum!

• I will let my kids have tuckshop every day.
• I will put a sticker of a pokeball on my car.
• I will make my kids eat ALL of their dinner.
• When my kids are naughty I will say in a sweet voice, 'can you please stop it?'

Amita is 6!

So this year Amita has been a little bit Star Wars crazy. She received a lot of Star Wars themed presents and had a Star Wars party on her birthday with her school friends. She had a great day!

We played lots of games at Amita's party. The kids were sad when the games had all finished and it was time to go. Even the ones who didn't want their parents to leave them at the start, were hiding upstairs at the end of the party so they wouldn't have to go home (they eventually all went home). I think that makes it a success.

Here's Amita whacking the Pinata. We only got through half of the kids before it broke open. I'll need to do more than 3 layers of paper mache next time.

The donut game... I Love Lizzie's face!

This one was Amita's favourite game. They had to free Han Solo from the block of ice with a spoon. Once he was free they got an ice-block. They also played the chocolate game, pass the parcel and did an obstacle course.
