Other party

Naomi had another party today with her friends from Church.  One of the things she has struggled with in our transition is leaving her friends behind so we decided it was important to have over the 4 girls she has become friendly with at school to celebrate.  She has not been in school yet to make friends there.
It was a fun couple of hours.  Naomi wore her new dress-up dress (reversible Cinderella and Snow White - oh the agony of decision making!!).  She really wanted a Belle cake so I did my best and, thankfully, it passed!

We played the pass the parcel - of course.  One of our favourites.  I had to laugh when Rose checked everybody knew how to play it.  That is necessary in Manila, but, Rose, this is England - where the game was invented!
We played eat the chocolate with gloves and knife and fork and Naomi left in a strop because she wasn't getting the right roll.  But pin the crown on the princess was a hit, as was decorating cookies (I realised how Americanised I am when I thought the smell of the cookies baking reminded me of Christmas!).  And cookies are different to biscuits before you claim that as further evidence.
I think it was a good step in Naomi's adjustment to England.
