Yes we donated an old canon to her (after she broke the lens but still works) and she also has a Vtech. So camera is out should have mentioned that...


She's into dolls, role playing, reading, ballet, drama club, sports, school, anything girly but has pretty much anything. First grandchild so spoiled rotten

Actually had a couple of good ideas while watering the garden - flower press and rose bush as she is very into flowers and always wants to cut mine


any electronic gadgets that help with reading out there? That would be good for her


and if any of you have a toy kitchen would you recommend it? Or is it going to just take up space and not be used? She loves helping out while we cook and makes her own brews out of leaves and sticks etc

Yep though perhaps something less thorny... She has a set of gardening tools but most have been left in the rain for over a year so a new set would be a good idea. I need a plant that flowers profusely and is good for cut flowers.


Any good books you folks can recommend? She has tons of books but haven't bought her anything recently (Octonauts was latest purchase some months back).


I like the toy kitchen idea but they are either plastic and rather awful or wood, very pretty and really expensive. Hmmmmm

I used to love the Katie Morag books (Marie Hedderwick) and recently bought some for my 4 year old goddaughter. If she hasn't already discovered them, the Milly Molly Mandy books are fab for that age too.


If she likes ballet, does she do lessons - maybe a new bag for her shoes? Or a ballet-themed book?

Has she got any of the klutz drawing books? Bug habitat, worm farm, ant farm - worm farm went down really well with my girls. Cool colouring books, eg the doodle series, with a big box of pencils/pens. Junie b jones series are brilliant us classics about a small girl starting school. Playmobil/Lego.

    • tried the traditional beef empanada yesterday and it was amazing honestly, hotter and better than the other place (no offence!). I really don’t see the issue with having more than one of the same type of shop – we’ve got Indian restaurants, two supermarkets, two cheese shops, two pizza joints, even two paint shops! So I don’t get what all the fuss is about. Good food is good food, and there’s room for everyone.
    • I understand you access ancestry from any Southwark library computer. Or see the real post office directories in archive. 
    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
