nice one Lesley; I can see it being used in a school here in a fortnight,
ReplyDeletei used a version of the house that Jack built but i called him benjamin for Christmas - This is the house that Ben built; this is the stable at the back of the house that Ben built. One year i went wild and made an advent calendar up with each scene behind a window making a point about each.
Ah.. that is a really good idea. Thank-you
