In most Wimmera Mallee small towns, businesses close on Saturday at midday and re-open on Monday morning. For that reason, I was amused to drive through one today, past all of the closed doors and darkened stores, and see that a bright yellow sign advertising the Sunday Herald Sun occupied a quarter of the newsagent’s façade. Guess you can grab your copy there tomorrow.
Other things that amused and entertained us for the remainder of the school holidays were sleepovers, catching yabbies to show the girls, releasing the ‘crabbies’ (as Maeve was calling them), winning cheap plush toys at our local show and making this cool paint out of cornflour and water to decorate the footpath:
How lovely are those chubby fingers!! Your photos are so lovely!

Good teacher and good equipment! Thank you. Yes, curved around the end of the brush those hands look very cute. Not sure about the brush control with that grip!

Love the paint Larissa, Max would love to decorate our ‘path’. Is there a specific quantity/recipe I should stick to?

I’m sure Max will love it! I had read to make a 2:1 ratio – twice as much cornflour as water. But mine was about 1:1. It’s really just whatever consistency you want the ‘paint’ to be. It’s called ‘sidewalk paint’ on lots of websites. Enjoy!
