"Why Do You Wear Glasses...?" The Twins Interview Aunty Spot

This week I decided I would do things a little differently and let the twins take over my blog post.

OK - so they are 6 and can't type so they didn't do every bit and I typed it up but I did let them decide what we would do. They both said they enjoyed answering questions about each other recently and that they'd like to do something similar. After a bit of discussion and thrashing about some ideas they decided they would like to interview their favourite person in the world....Aunty Spot!

The Twiglet's with Aunty Spot

They both came up with 5 questions each and they genuinely came up with these themselves and then interviewed her. Here is the outcome:

Poppy

Q1: Why do you wear glasses?

Because I can't see far away very well! I can see things up close fine, but far away they get a bit blurry.

Q2: What is your favourite book ever?

Ever??? Probably "Matilda" or "The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe". I love them both.

Q3: What is your favourite thing to eat?

Crisps. All kinds of crisps.

Q4: Do you ever have to do homework?

I do :( teachers have lots of homework to do otherwise you will end up having nothing to do at school.

Q5: What is your favourite thing to do with the children at school?

Reading. I love reading. I even get to read WITH the children as well as to TO the children. It's my favourite part of the day!

Ruby

Q1: What is your favourite thing to wear?

Interesting question! My "Beauty and the Beast" T Shirt is my favourite thing to wear.

Q2: What are you scared of?

Spiders.

Q3: What is your favourite film?

"Sister Act 2" and "Beauty and the Beast". Real life "Beauty and the Beast" is also pretty high up.

Q4: What is your favourite thing to do with us?

Play with you and colour in and read stories to you.

Q5: What is your favourite thing to do with your Mam?

Have cocktails and a chatter.

And there you go. The twins now feel like they know Aunty Spot a little bit better and I am sure they will continue to get to know her more.

I will sign off now.

Until next time...

"What Did You Think Of.....Captain Underpants?"

For our latest review we took the twins to see "Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie". I say "we"...I let Kate take them with their Aunty Spot while I sat in Costa and read my book with a latte. Here is their review: Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie WARNING: COULD CONTAIN SPOILERS Describe "Captain Underpants" in a nut shell: Ruby: It is about a man who is a teacher and a boy who finds a ring and turns him in to Captain Underpants. Poppy: Two little boys who love making comics and there was a nasty teacher and they turned him into Captain Underpants. Kate/Spot: Comic books come to life. What was your favourite bit of "Captain Underpants?" Ruby: Every time the boy said "Freeze" and talked to the camera (broke the 4th wall). Poppy: When he was changing to Captain Underpants and the...

My Top 5 Best And Worst Kids TV Shows

When I was a kid we had 4 channels. Because of that my brother and I just had to watch what was on and didn't really have much choice. During the week there was nothing on the TV in the morning. Kids today don't know how lucky they are. They have hundreds of channels to choose from, channels that are dedicated to nothing but kids TV shows as well as streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime with kids shows on demand. Since the twins were born in 2011 I have been introduced to many kids TV shows. Some of them are brilliant but some of them are just plain awful. For this post I have decided to list my favourites and my least favourites. Here goes... (Note - I haven't included any shows from when I was a kid - only ones that I was introduced to with the twins.) 10: Worst - Topsy And Tim "Topsy and Tim" is an awful TV show! Everything is so perfect! It is just a total false representation of life with kids! Especially with twins! I think when peopl...

Despicable Me 3 WARNING: COULD CONTAIN SPOILERS Describe "Despicable Me 3" in a nut shell: Ruby: A bad boy makes a giant robot and tries to kill everyone Poppy: It is about the Minions going to jail and coming back and Gru finds them and helps them Me: Dru meets his twin brother Gru and they learn to bond whilst trying to stop a former child-star gone crazy from destroying the world whilst The Minions try to go back to being bad and Lucy learns to be a mother. What was your favourite bit of "Despicable Me 3?"
