These past two weeks started off quietly enough...
The children wanted to look after some animals. They made enclosures for each type of animal and assigned zoo keepers.
All was well... until feeding time came and then chaos!
Some leopards started climbing over the warthogs' fence, a sea lion has gotten lost in the zebra cage, the monkeys have unpicked the locks to let the dolphins out and the fish have flooded the giraffe's field!
Road Safety Week
The trick to managing traffic well involves a few important things:
A high visibility
jacket -- check!
A bunch of traffic
signs -- check!
And the most important of all: law-abiding motorists -- check!
The grown-ups showed the children how the traffic lights worked and what they mean: Red, Amber, Green!
Then, the children had a go at controlling the traffic.
It is also important that motorists know what other street signs mean.
Usually, the traffic at the Pepperbox City flows smoothly. But every once in a while there may be a traffic control officer who forgets to put the "GO" sign back on.
Oh, no! How long does it take?
Finally! Let's go!
Meanwhile, at the other side of the Pepperbox City...
Shadow puppets. But that's a whole different story.
