Rosie's love for exploring came to the fore this week with the creation of an explorer's bag for her to carry her tools in. She needed a bag that would allow her to carry around binoculars, a drink, something to write on and a plastic imitation Swiss Army knife. So, after some discussion together about the colour this bag should be (brown or green to blend in with the bush), how many pockets it should have (one large opening inside and one outside pocket for her binoculars so she can pull them out quickly if she sees a bird) and how long the strap should be (long enough for the bag to sit on her hip) I whipped up a satchel from some old curtain fabric I found at the op shop and a brown fairy tale fabric from Kelani that I'd been saving for something special.
Needless to say, it was all Rosie asked for and has been used everyday since its creation!
