Bean opted for a trip to Tilgate Park today. We haven't been there for almost a year but he still remembered it as the place we have been to with cousin B. We spent a happy time in the play area. Bean challenged himself to the top of the crows nest and along many of the benches and bridges but was happy to watch Pumpkin whizz repeatedly down the curly slide. He did climb the steps and platforms several times with the intention of having a go and there was lots of encouragement from his brother waiting at the bottom but he didn't make it this time. He did brave the basket swing though and even stood up in it.
The main attraction for opting for Tilgate Park today was that they could ride their bikes again. We took quite the uphill walk to get from the play area to the Nature Centre. We arrived just in time to help feed the pigs and her new piglets and enjoyed taking a lot of photos of Australian animals (mostly birds.) Although things have been quiet on the Australian front Bean insisted I took photos of them for his book. This project has been going on and off now since the Spring and I am loving that home ed allows us to do that.
Bean and Pumpkin spent some time in the maze together and we followed our noses down paths previously untrod to pop out of the park directly opposite the car (well done us!)
