Cool Kangaroo and Joey

Last term Ella's preschool teacher Kelly introduced the class to Cool Kangaroo and Joey. This soft kangaroo with it's joey went home with students for a sleepover at their house. Students are encouraged to draw and write about Cool Kangaroo's experiences with them in a special book as well as talk about it at news time.

After a long wait, last week Ella finally was able to bring home Cool Kangaroo and as it was the Friday she had a whole week with them. Ella drew Cool Kangaroo and Joey jumping on the trampoline. Unfortunately it wasn't a very exciting week...Cool Kangaroo's highlights were going out to dinner on Friday night to a Dumpling House, dropping Andy off at the airport & going into Grandpa's office.

Regardless Ella loved the experience! I on the other hand was quite stressed that Cool Kangaroo would be left somewhere or worse still be attacked by Pippa who enjoys chewing and pulling out the hard eyes of soft toys. Thankfully Thursday came and Cool Kangaroo and Joey were returned in one piece back to Kelly.
