The Weekend Box

βœ¨πŸŽ‰ Yesterday a strange box appeared in the garden whilst the kids were at school, the dinosaurs had bought a new family weekend tradition to the FD household !!!πŸ˜ƒ

When the kids returned home we gathered with excitement to open it….it was filled with all sorts of goodies to enjoy over the weekend, sweets, snacks, playing cards, bubbles, squirty cream for hot chocolate, cake mix AND even a ‘takeaway pass’! πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘…perfect.
Reading further it turns out that the box will return each weekend with different contents inside…..how exciting is that πŸ˜‰βœ¨πŸ’•

We’ve all welcomed the ‘Weekend Box‘ wholeheartedly 😁

**our 1st box was filled with junk but it doesn’t have to be, you can put anything in it! It would be ideal for camp out things, den building stuff, art and craft materials, items for a beach trip…..anything

Here’s what our first box looked like…

We’ve a miniature cheese board to tantalise our taste buds….
And a very special train ticket pass to be exchanged for a FD themed magical journey over the weekend πŸ˜‰πŸš‚….you’d be surprised how special you can make a normal train ride with a teeny bit of imagination 😁✨
