{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

The Imagination

My two chickens keep astounding me with the extent of their imaginative play! At ages seven and ten, when many children are absorbed in popular culture, computers and television, they are still making wondrous play/art sculturesque play in the backyard for literally hours:
Ingredients: One mound of dirt which has been left neglected on the concrete for months and which has since sprouted itself a no dig garden, some beeswax and some twigs!
Voila!

Down by the Inner City Farm

What a way to study Child Development, sitting at the best cafe in town, drinking coffee, my "chickens" chasing and massaging goats in the nearby paddock, the smell of peppercorn trees and hay down at the Collingwood Children's Farm..

I just had to take a few photos of the girls amazing story they set up yesterday, involving gnomes and fairies negotiating playground politics. I am so intrigued by the processing of experiences which goes on in play.
