1 Jake, 3, plays with such concentration with his Lego.
Serious concentration
2 We went to Truro this afternoon and went to the Lemon Street Market cafe for a chocolate brownie and a coffee. Floating above the shoppers is this beautiful paper sculpture of a peacock.
3 Upstairs, as well as the coffee shop, is a gallery and there is a beautiful baby grand piano with this notice on it inviting anyone to play! I would so love to play it but will have to have rather a lot more lessons before I’m ready for concert playing!
Do read this notice on the piano!

Thank you all.

These are all so nice for children, especially during their early ages… Lego keeps their imaginary strong and paper art is another touches for their creative mind and finally piano, music, how beautiful for their soul…. Actually dear Sally (I hope I am not making mistake about your name) these are so nice for us too… Anything in creative world or art feeds our souls and makes us to feel better… I know because of myself… I am still crazy with these Lego toys 🙂 But you can ask me is there anything that doesn’t make you crazy 🙂
Little young man so lovely, Blessing him. And the piano and the idea to be played by anyone just FASCINATED me… This should be the beauties of your culture. Thank you dear, have a nice day, with my love, nia

Thank you so much for your lovely comments. It is lovely to invite just anyone to play the piano isn’t it? A most generous and happy thing to do.
I so agree about all the creative things to stimulate children.
Thank you again for calling in
Love
Sally 🙂

I figure the Lego is a wonderful learning curve
for children of all ages, I rather like building the
odd rocket or crane for my nephews, so Lego
suits the bigger kid’s also 🙂 lol

I agree about stepping on them! Ouch! There was once a teenage boy playing there and he was so good, it was a delight to hear – and to see his skill 🙂

I am almost there – good for you – have to add something more to my life list – bucket lists are too sorrowful

Life list sounds much better! Is bucket list an American expression? I only came across it as I started blogging.Actually, I’ve just googled it and discovered it comes from a film – the things two terminally ill men want to do before ‘they kick the bucket’. That reinforces my liking of your words – life list! 🙂
