\"The<\/a>Well today was good fun, we actually had a good turnout at our first mummy group.\u00a0In fact it was\u00a0so well attended I didn’t have enough instruments for all the kids!\u00a0The hard bit was trying to\u00a0pitch it right – what songs do you sing with Israelis, Americans and Russians??? As it turns out, there are several old English rhymes that have made it to the Israeli song vernacular.\u00a0 It’s pretty random though.\u00a0 Incy Wincy the Spider\u00a0they know.\u00a0 And they can sing it in Hebrew.\u00a0 Nobody’s heard off Baa Baa the Black Sheep.\u00a0 Possibly because they have more spiders here than sheep…?\u00a0 Who knows.\u00a0Perhaps I ought to copyright my own song on Jukim (cockroaches), that would go down really well;<\/p>\n

“We find them in our kitchens<\/p>\n

we find them in our bathrooms<\/p>\n

and when we find them in our shoes…..<\/p>\n

we all say….aaagghhh!” [everyone screams]<\/p>\n

Something like that.\u00a0 You get the gist.<\/p>\n

Anyway it was lovely seeing lots of smiling little\u00a0faces and the mums managed to sing quite a few of the songs.\u00a0 Mental note to keep it simple…. we were doing swimmingly with all the old\u00a0 greats but I lost them at\u00a05 little Ducks.\u00a0 It’s hard to predict what songs non-English speakers will find more complex.\u00a0 Oh well, you live you learn.\u00a0 At least Husband and I now have a use for our impressive stuffed\u00a0sheep collection.\u00a0 They were a big hit.<\/p>\n

These sorts of groups are very important here as many Israelis don’t have gardens.\u00a0 It’s pretty hard living in a flat with small children (which is probably why they get herded off to\u00a0nursery as soon as they can move)\u00a0and I was pleased to see our garden being put to good use.\u00a0 Not so pleased that Jojo dug half of it up with his bare hands\u00a0during the second half of our session, which I couldn’t do much about what with everything going on.\u00a0 It seems his main ambition in life is to create more laundry for mummy.<\/p>\n

I suppose it’s all downhill from here really, as\u00a0far as laundry is concerned.\u00a0I should probably be greatful that at least his clothes don’t smell yet.\u00a0 Something else to look forward to in the fabulous journey of Child Development.<\/p>\n

P.S. Husband wants me to mention the trials and tribulations we experienced on acquiring our car with insurance\u00a0(now proudly sitting outside our house).\u00a0 I have told him to get his own blog.\u00a0 This is my space love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
