Day 1 of the hols

Well.....11 kids later...and I am not having a meltdown!!!!!
It rained.....always pants when you have loads of kids around and it is raining....however it did not stop them going into the garden and having a good kickaround! They were out there for about an hour in just Tshirts and shorts...got them all dried and changed when they came in.
They also enjoyed decorating Easter bunny biscuits .....and scoffing them down after too! Even the 8 year old boys enjoyed this.
The little ones all made some chicken type mask things out of egg cartons:

This was done by quite simply cutting out the egg carton and gluing lots of tissue paper and feathers to it. Some were more decorated than others, but fun was had by all.
Two other mums of the youngest stayed for the 4 hours of mummy madness and we managed to have 3 cups of tea and a good natter as having so many kids around meant that they all had someone to play with all the time!
Overall it was so successful that my kids have asked if they could do this every holiday! I think as long as I have a couple of mums staying I will be ok with this!
