Cob Man and Dog

 

Hello every body!! You know how I was telling you about cob house's? Well I made a cob MAN and DOG!! The man is a hippy so I made him a cool necklace I even painted him espadrilles which are a type of shoe and there are lots of different colerd ones!

 The dog on the other hand was quite easy because you only have to make a shape of a 

dog's head and body you could get a tooth pick and make a wedge for the dog's legs...

 I feel like I never want to stop!..... but I guess I have to because there won't be any more dirt left in the garden.

OK see you all soon!

teny tiny SNAILS !

                                                                Hello! everybody!

                             A few days ago I found some snails. 

         I kept them in a little bead holder and put gladwrap on the top,                   then I punched holes in it so they could breathe .

 Oh by the way, snails breathe from there foot which is were there bum would be!!

 I also named them!... Robyn, Sherbet, Gary, Brian, Cent, Inch, Slimy and Milton. :)

Here is where I found the snails.

I think they rest here in the day and then come out at night time,

and then go and find some food.

You know one of are tomatoes got EATEN!... yes! there was a hole in it and I don't now if it was the little spider that has done a web on the tomato vine or the snails?

By the way I am going to do a blog on the tomatoes soon too!!!


OK see you! I will have to brush my teeth soon!

BYE!!!!!!! :) :)  :)

 

AT MOUNT TAMBORINE

                               Hello a few weeks ago we went to Mount Tamborine. 

         We had lots of fun,! we had a picnic and went on the rain forest walk and then we    had  a look at all of the roses there were pink ones white one's and! red one's!!!!  the pink petals fell on big hay stacks and it looked like someone had put a pink blanket on them!

then we went to the Japanese garden and there was a really cute little house made of stone! 

this is a kookaburra that I took a picture of!

 

 and you know the first bird called another one!

well I need to go to bed now... see you,

COB HOUSE

Hi ya

If you are wondering what a cob house is....it is a house of cob of course.

Cob is a type of clay like mud, people make bricks out of it, and then they put straw with it and then they spread smooth clay on that so it covers all of it. 

When it is dry it can take on rain, wind, sand storms and other things. This is one that you can use for toys, because I don't have enough mud to make a real one! 






Here are some real cob   houses...

Not all cob houses are the same!

 

alright time to go... hope you liked my post.

See you soon , Charlie

                                                                                                                  

FIRE!!!!!

Hello everyone !

A few days ago there was a fire,
don't worry I was fine because it was a controlled fire and it was sooo cool!
I took come pics of it to...

We went for a walk later in the afternoon, and there was still burning hot pieces of logs on fire, and they were still smokey, and there was fire underneath the ash making it glow. I thought it was Very Cool! I got to talk to one of the firemen inspecting the fires, and told him about the burning 'embers'. New word, Mum told me...

They have to burn off the dry leaves and branches so we don't have an accidental bushfire, which could be Very Dangerous! Now we are safe. Ahhhhhh :)

bye bye

     And you can make lots of different trees to,

your tree does not  have to be the same as mine.

If you want to you can have a door at the bottom of the tree,

       or you can have a cut out door at the top and have a bird perch :)

             OK see you all soon!
