Bad Bunny
Tonight's bedtime story is themed especially around Miss Honey-Bunny from 'Dog Loves An Anthology' and Peter Rabbit's naughty behaviour, and is by Steve Smallman, about another naughty rabbit who finds a way to outsmart a fox. I once read this book in the library, and I have posted pictures of it on my blog - especially the illustration of the naughty rabbit stealing a jar full of chocolate chip cookies.
My Daily Letters
I've decided that, to avoid Factory giving up on contacting me, I decided to send hand-written letters to CBBC, Factory (tonight it's Coolabi), Ludo and the National Autistic Society to tell them about what I did today. Here are two of the letters, to CBBC, telling them about their showing of Tom & Jerry: Blast Off To Mars.
Make A Wish New Zealand
WARNING: The wishes you are about to read are from the county where Mackenzie comes from! Make-A-Wish has their own branch in New Zealand, so if you're fond of Tuatara, read these inspiring wish stories. Maybe they'll want to inspire you to make more stories!
Colours Of Butterfly Wings
Bluey and Bingo have yet to learn about the life cycle of a butterfly, so by playing a game of butterflies with Judo in the backyard, they can discover more about nature's greatest miracle of all time. Butterflies' wings come in pretty colours, and for you, making magically colourful stained glass butterfly wings with cellophane is a new way to play the game at home, as before I saw this episode, I imagined Bluey dressed up in a green-pink-blue butterfly costume playing at flittering around in the garden.
Head over to 50 Days Of Bluey to find more activities themed around 'Butterflies', including making butterfly wings, apologising and much much more:
It's Kix Time!
Now we can all find out what used to air on Kix, including Power Rangers Time Force and Transformers Cybertron!
Paddington Goes To School
I found this special animated Paddington adventure, and I thought I'd like to share Paddington throwing all the baking stuff off the table. FACT: This Paddington special appeared on an obscure video with Huckleberry Hound and Fireman Sam that I brought sometime.
Red As A Bus
The Yakka Dee episode 'Bus' reminded me so much of the Teletubbies episodes about numbers and colours - well, all of them do, but this one reminds me of the episode 'Washing The Bus', which I saw when I was little vaguely. Since some of the buses in Yakka Dee are coloured red like a London double decker bus, why not watch 'Colours - Red' yourself? How many other red things can you spot?

The Secret Life Of Pony Princesses
In these two dialogue-free shorts, we take a glimpse into the lives of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, during retirement and how they have fun as sisters, taking their serious responsibilities from the original show away and having fun while they can, hogging out on chocolates and cake, trying new things and of course fooling around with other ponies.
Make A Tom & Jerry Pizza & Chocolate Milkshake
In one scene in Tom & Jerry: Blast Off To Mars, one scientist tries out a potion which turns normal dead rats or other substances into food such as a sticky, succulent pizza and a foaming chocolate milkshake. After that dramatic play themed around the movie, maybe you could have a pizza and a chocolate milkshake for lunch. Follow these recipes and soon you'll have a feast just like the guards and scientists (were going to) have until they hired Tom to catch Jerry!

The Politically Correct Railway Series
What if the Rev. W Awdry were still alive? He'd write Thomas today, but it'll be politically correct. This is why I love the Thomas' PC Adventures video series, which retained the charm of the original series but with an adult feel. I've already put up Percy's Revelation, but now I'd like to share with you the other episodes: Gordon & The Caravans, Edward's Rendez-Vous and Henry's Dilemma. Warning! These stories will be a little different to the original Railway Series you read as a child.
Tom & Jerry Space Station Dramatic Play!
A new Tom & Jerry adventure has arrived on CBBC - Tom & Jerry: Blast Off To Mars, where the animation seems to be a lot more simple and slow than the other films such as Wizard Of Oz and Robin Hood & His Merry Mouse. Sometimes, even you need a cat and mouse to help you understand imaginative play, and because Tom & Jerry's latest adventure is about going to space, you can pretend to go to space, too! Find some space-themed dramatic play ideas, then you can build your own cardboard rocket to head off to Mars!
Here they are in space-icles,
Wish you could join them too!

I Wish I Could See Them...
This is a promo for the new series of Bluey for Disney Junior in America. It also gave me glimpses of things I would expect to find from episodes like Grandad onwards, including Bluey, Bingo, Snickers, Coco and Chloe chasing after Dad!
Mickey & Friends Valentines' Day Cupcake Toppers
Valentines' Day was two days ago, and it had passed now, but you can make these cute little Mickey Mouse & Friends cupcake toppers to place on any kind of cupcake - chocolate, vanilla, red velvet, Halloween, Christmas, you name it, Mickey has used lots of different techniques to impress his girlfriend Minnie on that kind of day, and by placing these cupcake toppers on your cupcakes, impress the ones you love anytime, day or night!
