Make An Eco Adventure Pack!

• Grab a small pencil case (you’ll find plenty of cute ones at Home Bargains!).

• Fill it with:

  • A foldable tote (for ASDA shopping, so no plastic bags)

  • A colorful travel mug (to enjoy your hot chocolate in Tomach and avoid a paper cup)

  • A bamboo spork or small reusable cutlery set (for your picnic)

  • A cloth napkin (to wipe sticky fingers without paper towels)

  • A silicone snack bag (for any bits of fruit or treats)—no single-use bags needed!

How to use your Eco Adventure Pack:

1. ASDA: Clip the foldable tote to your bag and skip the plastic carrier.

2. Picnic: Pull out your bamboo spork, cloth napkin, and snack bag for zero-waste munching.

3. Tomach hot chocolate: Hand over your travel mug—many cafés even give you a little discount for bringing your own!

4. Invergordon liners: Turn picking up any stray bits of litter into a mini-game—stash them in your snack bag until you can recycle or bin them properly.

5. Home Bargains: After you pick up your new notebooks and pens, tuck your Eco Adventure Pack into your fresh pencil case—ready for next time!

Adventure Companion Kit - A Case Of Helping

Decorate a small backpack
Let’s turn an ordinary bag into a treasure chest! Add bright stickers or draw little pictures of a picnic blanket, a ship, and a hot-chocolate mug on the front so Sally can spot it right away.

Pack your own treats & drinks

• Picnic goodies from ASDA: sandwiches, fruit, crisps—pack them in clear, reusable boxes so you both can see what’s inside without rustling plastic.

• Hot chocolate in a thermos: pre-make it at home and pour into a leak-proof flask. Now you can enjoy a warm drink at Tomach without queuing in the café or battling loud noises.

Add a “Quiet Kit”

• Noise-canceling headphones or ear-defenders for Sally (and extra little ones for you, too!).

• Fidget toys or a soft squeeze ball to keep hands busy if things feel noisy outside.

• Tuck them into a side pocket for quick grabs.

Create a mini picture-schedule
Draw or print small icons on index cards for each stop—🛒 ASDA, 🧺 picnic, ☕ hot-chocolate, 🚢 ship-watching, 🎁 Home Bargains outside.

• Hole-punch and clip them together so you can flip through as you go.

• Stick a little star or smiley sticker on each card when you finish that part of the adventure!

Plan a “quiet corner” in the car

• Lay a soft blanket on one side of the back seat and keep the volume low on any music or audiobook.

• Use this as your go-to spot to chill out between stops, chat with your support worker about what you’ve seen, or just relax.

Mickey Mouse Countdown Day 1 - The Worst Day Ever!

Today was the absolute worst start to the weekend ever!

I kept whining about how hungry I was to Mum before ASDA came, I pushed my dog off the poof, and I began whinging when he drooled all over the computer! Eeeewww! Then I ordered Coke online and I thought Mum was going to be angry at me, but she wasn't. As a result, I got a full tummy and a blank brain, so I'm taking a break right now.

The only good thing about today is watching my Cubix DVD, which came this morning. I mean, no one in Bubble Town experiences a bad day...or do they?
