Let me just say right now I am not religious in any way but I like to take a breather from everyday life (which the easter break affords) and step back and take the time to be grateful for things and for me the one big thing I am so grateful for is my family. Friends are pretty important too. You really can’t get a better “holiday” as it not only involves a long weekend and family but also has plenty of chocolate! (well apart from christmas)
So what have we been up to?
My husband brought home a choconchoc build your own house

My husband knows the way to my heart 🙂 On the pack it does say from age 4+ well my son is three but let me tell you he enjoyed it, not the making of the house really as there was not much he could do but he did manage to fit in a bit of this:

and he got to wear a hat which he was pretty pleased about

He also enjoyed colouring in the garden

The end result impressed my son, the look of achievement on his face was priceless and definitely a moment to cherish. Would I buy it or a similar kit again? I would, for one the chocolate is very good and it gave us something to do together that we are both passionate about (if you have not guessed already it is the chocolate!)
Please note we may have had to do a little patch job as we was not patient enough to let it set completely in the fridge….
We have just started to eat it today, yum.
