Hey everyone,

I thought it'd be a cool idea for the children to paint a seaside scene but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas how I can make it a little bit easier for the kids to do??

We have lots of sponges but none of sea animals!!

Thanks,

Bobette x

Do you mean on the beach or under the water?

Hey just to let you know that this new shop has opened up near me called 'The Range' and I thought I'd have a nosy in this afternoon. There's so much craft resources and activities for a couple of quid. I've bought some sea creatures and shells that the children can print with but there is soooo much other stuff and its all really cheap!!

Definitely worth a look if there's one local.

We've got one of those and it's great. Many of the things you can get from Hobby's but a fraction of the price. They also have a vast selection of housewares and garden stuff.

I love the range! Wish there was one nearer me Sad

Went into the Norwich one the other week whilst on half term and got some lovely shells for our investigation area.
The craft stuff is great as well.
