It was great fun, running around the garden looking for clues, making a magic word which we could tell Father Christmas when we met him.
I don't know who enjoyed it the most, our six year old daughter or my husband and me!
 |
| Ham House |
 |
| Lots of Fun |
 |
| Christmas decorations |
 |
| The first clue was here, under this exotic fruit |
 |
| We read the clues and filled in the wordsearch |
 |
| Riding lessons at a nearby stables |
 |
| More clues, and directions to the next one! |
 |
| The clues were in the most unlikely of places |
 |
| Wintery light dappling this wall |
 |
| Another clue |
 |
| They were all attached to bowler hats |
 |
| Every where looked cold... Brrrr! |
 |
| Some vegetables were still growing in the garden |
 |
| But most were gone |
 |
| the Holly looked spectacular |
 |
| At last the final clue |
 |
| We're nearly there! |
 |
| Hot drinks for those feeling the cold |
 |
| And here is Father Christmas! |
How fabulous is that!
ReplyDeleteOh, I miss going to see Father Christmas - the almost 14 year old is not really interested any more (well, that's what she says ... I'm not so sure). We used to go to Colchester Zoo - Father Christmas would arrive on a horse, then we would stand in the endless queue for the grotto giving us chance to get a little warm - it was always freezing cold, but the girls insisted on walking around the zoo to see ALL the animals.
ReplyDeleteWonderful!!!!!!!!!!!So nice to meet Santa!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
