We have started a bit of a tradition where we do a CRAZY DAY PLAN when Aunty Deirdre looks after Renee and Zoe in the School Holidays. We all have a lot fun. Aunty/Mum writes up the plan and then the kids work through the tasks. Today's tasks were:
- Write your full name
(first, middle and surname) backwards
- Make a board game and
play it with someone. The winner was
- Make a piece of
clothing that you can wear out of newspaper
- Do 50 punches on Uncle
Todd/Dad’s boxing bag without stopping
- Write an article about
the Crazy Day plan to go on Aunty’s Blog.
It has to include: the thing that you have most enjoyed; Something you’d
like to do; How it makes you feel; Something funny; A photo of you doing
something from the Crazy Day Plan.
- 30+30+10 jumps on the trampoline
- Draw a picture that includes: A robber; A sports team; A super hero; McDonalds
Restaurant; Jack
- Make your first initial out of gingerbread.
- Do 5 laps of our driveway (top to bottom and back)
- Do 15 hockey passes to your team mate
- Make a clock
- Do 30 Rugby passes with our partner
- Draw Jack on the
driveway
- Make a Tangram (see below) and do the five puzzles.
Here's the Crazy Day Articles:
The part of the day that I enjoyed was doing 70 jumps on the tramp, because I love trampolines. Next time I would like to do something to do with gymnastics. The Crazy Day plan make me feel excited and a little bit competitive. The most funny activity was drawing Jack on the driveway, because I gave him muscles. By Renee
The Amazing Crazy Day Plan . . . the funniest thing was when I dressed up in a newspaper bikini which me and Liv made. I enjoyed doing hockey passes with Renee. We had heaps and heaps of fun end enjoyed McDonalds too. Next time I would like to have more activities because the more things the more fun we have. I really enjoy spending time with my cousins.

The Crazy Day plan is really fun. My favourite thing that we did is go to McDonalds. I would like to go to the Zoo next holidays. The Crazy Day plan makes me feel happy. Daniel and Wiliam got told off for climbing to the top of the playground by a McDonalds lady. By Zoe
The funniest thing was dressing up in newspaper clothes. My favourite thing that I did was go to McDonalds and jumping on the trampoline. Next time I would like to put the nets up on the tramp and do a backward somersault. The Crazy Day plan makes me feel awesome as we have heaps of fun. By Dan
Next it was lessons and then up to test out the newly learned skills (Olivia that is!). They had a fabulous day, leaving when the mountain closed at 4pm. 
Well it's been a bit of a wet day today. BUT I think the kids have had fun any way. This morning I dropped Daniel and Jack off at my Dad's to meet up with their 2nd Cousin Yonni from Waipara (out of Christchurch). They had a great time. So much so that they bought Yonni back home for the afternoon and dinner. When he was picked up Yonni was keen to stay and walk to the airport in the morning. Next time, hopefully we can book in a sleep over.
William had his friend Thomas stay the night. They had a sleepover in the rumpus room and didn't wake until 10am. Then it was Cluedo on the Playstation. What a quiet morning.
