This half term we have been suffering with a cold virus. I had lost my voice for a day, have been left with an awful tickly cough. The boys are bunged up, with horrible coughs... half term has been a challenge of the utmost kind!
One thing has kept us some way sane, has helped us feel a little better and allowed us to have some quiet cuddle times on the sofa is...
THE OCTONAUTS!
(click here for an episode).
The Octonauts are a team of underwater explorers who help creatures who are hurt or distressed.
It is on Cbeebies every week day at 4.50pm, it has to be the best thing on TV at the moment!
My two spend the entire day being the Octonauts characters. Charlie is Kwazi the adventure loving Pirate Cat and Rufus is Peso the Nurse Penguin who loves all creatures.
During these imagination plays Dan takes over the role of Captain Barnacle and I have been given the role of Dashie the Sausage Dog who loves to take photos and oversees all of the ships operations (of course!).
Thank you to The Octonauts for a great and memorable half term, despite the rain and the coughs.
Shhhh I think Father Christmas will be bringing some of the books to our house this Christmas for sure!
