Thursday 13 - Grandpa & Grandma

My cousins are back – yeah! And my Grandma and Grandpa are coming next week!

Here are 13 things I am going to do with my Grandma and Grandpa when they come.
  1. I’m going to take them to the mini-zoo near my house to meet my best friends, the duikers. We’ll touch the baboons’ hands when we feed them mielies, and Grandpa will protect me from the big scary cow.
  2. I will show them how I feed my bunnies.
  3. We’ll go visit lots of Mozambican children and I’ll get to play with them.
  4. Grandpa will read me lots of stories and teach me the alphabet frontwards and backwards.
  5. Grandma will help me play the keyboard and sing songs with me.
  6. I’ll go for walks with them.
  7. We’ll pick lemons together (I’ll play ball with them) and maybe mangos too when they get ripe.
  8. We’ll go to Kruger National Park and see lots of wild animals.
  9. Grandma will help me cook lots of yummy food to eat. Like mango pancakes and spaghetti and cookies.
  10. Grandpa and I will hunt lions together. Or maybe snakes. Or grasshoppers
  11. Grandma will help me color pictures and pick flowers and do other fun craft things.
  12. We will go to the beach and make sand castles.
  13. We will play in the swimming pool when the water gets warmer.
I can't wait!
