The Lion King!

-

Okay, so this was one for the big kids!

The Ned's went to see Lion King the Musical

I am friends with two wonderful ladies who's children are buddies with Zach, well I say buddies but they're more like siblings because the love each other but fight like cat and dog, and they're both into wooden toys too! First it was me and L, when she first came I noticed her daughter was in a cloth nappy and she noticed Zach was in LGR clothes, then we started a talk about how cute Ned was and how much we both needed one, then we got more involved in the church and helped out together with the scenery for the nativity! Basically by the time it got to Christmas, we were best buddies, chatting Babipur, Maxomorra and Ned then we started a craft group and out came R as a serial crafter (honestly, she has no limits on her crafting ability) we all bonded over craft and crochet as a common interest and then we drew R into the "rainbow side" (like the dark side but obviously rainbow!) Anyway, long story short, we are now best buddies and we are always there for each other through whatever, like I really don't know what I would've done without these girls recently plus between us, we have a VERY impressive toy collection! 

So, both L & I are 90's kids and The Lion King is clearly a firm favourite so one day while we were at craft club at R's we suggested all of bringing our toys together and recreating the lion king scene on pride rock... Well tonsillitis, chicken pox and just general illnesses meant we couldn't do it in time for the new movie release but finally WE'VE DONE IT!!!! 


Pride rock! 

All the 'circle of life' feels

"Long Live the King!"

"Hakuna Matata, what a wonderful phrase"

"Can you feel like the love tonight?"

"I KILLED MUFASA!!!"

Obviously, this was all for a bit of fun and we had a great time doing it, even if one of us did have to entertain the kids so we could play HAHA!

Rainbow Rice Tuff Tray

Who doesn't love rainbow rice?! Last time I made rainbow rice, I tried the white vinegar and food colouring recipe, it was great BUT it turned out more of a pastel rainbow which was gorgeous but I wanted bright! So I tried the paint recipe and it worked beautifully, my OH's cousin helped as she is with me one day a week through out the summer holidays!  We poured the rice into a plastic tub, added some paint and shook until it was all covered and did the same with every colour until they were all done and we put them in the sun on the tuff tray to dry out, turning occasionally to make sure it was all dry! Obviously if you don't have time for this, some places have it readily made  Tiny Land Rainbow Rice (7)   Tiny Land Rainbow Rice (5) I paired it with all the rainbows, including, our grant palos, Lanka Kade animals, Rainbow Ned, Walnut Ned and our Grimms 6 piece rainbow! I also used a couple of our tuff tray bits, like a small bucket and ...

For the love of Ned

Ned is our favourite toy in the house!  The day he got his Ned (Excuse the allergy shiner) We got Zach's first Ned back in January and we got Dino Ned and Walnut Ned (although the walnut was mainly for me) and it was love at first sight, he carried that dino ned everywhere he went!! He is the perfect little travel companion for Zach, he is ideal for fiddly little hands which Zach loves as he sits in the car or the buggy and as he's wooden, you can hear him if he falls HAHA! We then also got Bee Happy Ned and the rainbow Ned a couple moths later although Dino Ned is still Zach's favourite, he even takes him to bed. Ned is a very versatile toy and if you love wooden toys and haven't got one yet, then I cannot recommend him enough, he is a perfect little addition to your toy collection. He is Zach's buddy, a phone to call Daddy, he likes to wave goodbye to everyone using Ned's hand, set him up with other toys, its limitless! He loves using them...
