With Australia Day coming up next Monday, the 26th January, I have teamed up with some awesome Aussie bloggers to bring you lots of fun Australian themed ideas for kids.
For our Australia Day activity, rather than doing an Aussie inspired recipe with Bear and Bee I came up with a new printable Busy Bag idea. Both girls loved the Healthy Lunchboxes Busy Bag and Grow My Garden Busy Bag I did last year as part of a Busy Bag Virtual Exchange so I was pretty certain (can never be too sure with 5 year olds) that they would like this idea too.
If you are catching up with family and friends on Australia Day this Busy Bag would be a great quiet activity for the kids to do after lunch.
So without any further ado here is our No Mess Pavlova Busy Bag.
Click on this link to download a free printable that includes instructions for putting together the No Mess Pavlova Busy Bag.
I was initially inspired by the Pavlova Playdough Mat over on My Little Bookcase. I have included a sheet of fruit pieces to cut out and decorate the Pavlova page.
If you are pressed for time you could skip cutting out the fruit pieces and just print out the Pavlova base. Add in some tubs of playdough and shape cutters to make the fruit or use beads and buttons. To be safe use beads and buttons for older children only.
