Aitana i Martí: March 2014

The rhythm within / Amb el ritme al cos

This weekend, we went to a concert. For Martí, it was his first concert. It was a morning session tribute to The Beatles played by a Valencian band, The Blisters.
We had a really good time. As soon as we came in, he went to the first row; and, as soon as the music started, he danced to it shaking his head, waving his arms as if playing the drums and wiggling his body to the rhythm. A hard day's morning.

Aquest cap de setmana vam anar de concert, el primer per a Martí. Va ser una sessió matinal de tribut als Beatles. Tocava una banda valenciana, The Blisters.
Ens ho vam passar genial. Conforme vam entrar, Martí va anar directe a primera fila. I conforme van començar a tocar, va seguir el ritme amb el cap, sacsant els braços com si tocara la bateria i balancejant el seu coset al ritme de la música. A hard day's morning.

Aitana's Brave party / Festa d'aniversari de Brave

Decoration

Ja, ja se que fa més de mig any des de l'aniversari d'Aitana, però volia compartir aquesta entrada. M'encanta preparar secretament la seua festa d'aniversari, la decoració, les activitats per als xiquets i xiquetes, la cucanya, etc.

Decorate your crown

Enguany, continuem amb la febra princessil, així que la festa va estar dedicada a la seua heroïna d'aleshores: Mèrida (ara destronada per les protagonistes de Frozen). Ho vam passar d'allò més bé. Els xiquets i xiquetes van jugar a llançar els haggis, van decorar les seus corones i es van fer polseres, cadascú quan va voler fer-ho, al seu ritme.

Do your own bracelet

Busy hands

La cucanya era una caixa amb forats que els xiquets trencaven amb el puny. Dins, hi havien llepolies. Com a detallet d'agraïment, vaig fer unes diademes de Mèrida per a les xiquetes i un estoig de tela amb retoladors de tela per a decorar-lo per als xics. Com moltes altres vegades, la meua inspiració va ser Pinterest.

Toss the haggies / Llança els haggies

Yes, I know that it's been more than half a year since we celebrated Aitana's birthday, but I wanted to share it with you. I love secretly preparing everything for her party, the decoration, the activities for the children, the treats, the pinata, etc.

This year, since we're still having a crush for princesses and everything about them, the party theme was Aitana's then favourite heroine, Merida (who has now been overthrown by Frozen's main female characters). We had a really good time. The children played at their own path and when they wanted to. They tossed some haggis, decorated their crowns and made a bracelet. The pinata was actually a box with holes in it big enough for the children to break them with their fists. Inside, there were some swets. As a party treat, I made some head bands for the girls and a fabric pencil case with fabric felt pens to decorate it, for the boys. As in some other occasions, my inspiration came mainly from Pinterest.
