The girls' main present was a puppet theatre. We've been treated to a couple of little plays since Christmas morning, mostly involving a monkey, a selection of pigs and a rather two-dimensional princess. I captured one of these performances yesterday morning.
It's chaotic. Part way through one of the stage hands gets bored and asks if she can 'play with playdoh in a minute', I ran out of batteries before the finale and the entire production takes place in pyjamas but I think this might become a family favourite. Merry Christmas.
P.S. Festive preparations took over in the last week and I haven't yet managed to compile the Making Winter mosaics. They'll be on their way soon.
Is it weird that I found myself saying "hello!" back at the screen in a pig voice?
ReplyDeletePriceless!
Priceless Emma, just priceless. :)
ReplyDeleteI always wanted my kids to do this. They eschewed the puppets. They did do 'shows', where we had to endure 20 minutes of them leaping on a bed to the HSM soundtrack.
ReplyDeleteLittle Lad has now watched the video five times in a row, and on each viewing, he laughs uproariously at the vigorous oinking. And exclaims that Pebble #2 is "so cute!"
ReplyDeleteEmail coming shortly.
Magnificent grunting baritone that pig has. And your pebbles are the cutest!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet, I would have loved the theatre when I was a child. I wonder if it will form a love of acting in either of them?
ReplyDeleteHi Emma,
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful pantomime!!!
Enjoy the last few days of the year!
Lieve groet,

How fun to watch your little sweeties playing. I Love their cute accents LOL! Thanks for sharing Emma!
ReplyDeleteWe had one of these, sadly packed away now :( Enjoy those priceless performances - they're the best!
ReplyDeleteI hope it becomes a family tradition - such fun!
ReplyDeleteWonderful minimalist dialogue. The hand-held camera lends a nice edgy, realistic feel. :)
ReplyDeleteHow sweet they are. A family classic to be sure.
Hello Emma, just adorable!

That is absolutely priceless Emma. Hope you've all had a wonderful Christmas.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Have a great New Year! :) x
ReplyDeleteAwww that's super! Happy Christmas and New Year!
ReplyDeleteThat princess's acting was perhaps a little wooden? ;) Love the oinking of that pig though! I'm sure you're right - that little video will become a classic. So glad you had a good Christmas, and here's wishing you all a wonderful 2012 :) x
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.......:O))))))))
