Collecting Conkers

Yesterday we popped to the park after school. We had half an hour to kill before Hubby finished work and we could travel home together.

We spent the time collecting conkers. Our local park has several enormous trees all of them dripping with conkers.  

The girls particularly enjoyed stamping on the freshly fallen husks to break them open. Gman had the important job of putting them in the collecting bag. 

This morning Gman has enjoyed sorting them into an empty sweet box. He also enjoyed pouring them from one box to another and back again.

Our after school activities are going to have a distinct theme for a while!
