Sasha & The Toy Shop
Inspiration can come from CBBC and CBeebies, too, and this whole 'Sasha Clause' Dumping Ground episode has given me an idea of a new I.B.F.F Diaries '15 story: Sasha & The Toy Shop.
In this story, which is sent on the 19th of December 2018, Sasha tells her DG friends and the I.B.F.Fs about a magical toy shop where you just have to wish for something inside a great big wishing well and the toy of your dreams will appear right before your eyes. This story is one she made up when she was a little girl, so the I.B.F.Fs and the kids of the DG decide to follow her tale and explore the Frankfurt Christmas Market...but get sucked down a giant hole in the ground which leads the gang to the exact toy shop Sasha describe in her story!
I'll work on it in one of my notebooks, and post it on my blog soon!
Comparing The Pride
Nothing and Hover would spend all day on their laptops writing stories and checking out new stuff on the computer, spending little time with their notebooks.
Kioga and Karabi would spend more time with their notebooks, spending time on their computers in the morning before they head off to visit a relative.
And that's what I'm doing from now on!
Scooby News
So this Scooby Doo movie, Big Top Scooby Doo....
...is airing on CiTV as well this Boxing Day?!?!
I'm happy to tell you I did enjoy the Scooby Doo movies on Boomerang, because the monsters in each film remind me of the monsters of Scream Street. The Scooby Gang have been in three worlds before last decade - CBBC, CiTV and Boomerang. So, this Boxing Day, while kids get to see Scooby and Shaggy in their circus fantasies about Scooby transforming into a goofy human version of his loyal, familiar dog form we know and love on CiTV, I'll be yelling "ALLAH!" and thinking lots about Scream Street, Peter Pan and South Park's Imaginationland during Scooby Doo & The Goblin King's commercial-free airing on CBBC. I have to say, if there were to be rivals for the Scooby Gang today, there would always be Lindsey, Richie, Adam, Mwaksy and Henry - Henry-Wenry-Woooooo!!! I saw Big Top Scooby Doo listed in the CiTV section of the Boxing Day pages of Radio Times...well, if CBBC can embrace with Cartoon Network and Boomerang, there's no reason CiTV can't.
Scooby Doo & The Goblin King is still one of my favourite Scooby movies already. ALLAH!!!

If You Can't Make A Duck Cake....
...then make this! I suppose Mari and I will make that Duck Egg Sponge Cake if she wasn't got that Womens' Weekly Children's Birthday Cake book at her house someday....
Deva Desserts
If you were a Deva, you'd crave these desserts with this video I found from Tasty. I like to relate all these recipes to Me, You, And Digimon Tamers, because Calumon has quite a sweet tooth!
Radio Times Finds
ALLAH!!
Not available in Scotland? We'll always find dragon's treasure elsewhere...
I'm so looking forward to the new Love Monster episode on New Years' Day. What will your Woo Hoo Day be like?
Sweet Tooth Mickey
I found a lot of Mickey Mouse themed cocoa recipes - I hope you're not thinking about Disney's Coco, 'cause that's a different film about Mexican culture, like watching Scream Street at a quincenera. You're thinking about a hot chocolate drink like the toasting drinks in Winnie The Pooh: A Very Merry Pooh Year (take Pooh's advice and try them with honey, like trying cocoa with honey!). These recipes will have you growing Mickey's trademark ears and belting out Mickey's trademark chuckle in no time!

I had a cheese sandwich for breakfast and, since I have no white bread (it's my favourite) I tried to find something from Tasty, yet another video to bring my appetite on. The result? This video about recipes to make for your next dinner party.
After dinner, you can have and make these delicious We Bare Bears cupcakes for dessert. Click the link and make the recipe yourself. You'll 'barely' even realize you have a sweet tooth by the time you've done this recipe!
Countdown To Christmas Day 11 - Story Stones
There's a more natural approach to storytelling than story cubes - using stones to paint pictures and tell stories! Collect stones (if there are any) from outside in your garden and then grab pens and paint to get started. Use this website to help you:
