It is because of my dad that our kids have rather wild imaginations. Sometimes I find them sitting in the timber boat in the garage pretending that they are out at sea, complete with their life jackets on, other times they are setting up a beach in the lounge room - shells, towels, umbrella etc. Their latest escapades have been based around Honey I Shrunk the Kids, Big Cook, Little Cook and The Borrowers. You can imagine their delight when Dad discovered a brand new BBC show called Grandpa in my pocket. My kids have been carrying around Fisher Price Little People this week pretending that it is their Grandpa and Granny.I don't know when it is due out for release in Australia - we are screening each new issue of Foxtel's CBeebies guide. I am so pleased that there is another BBC show that they will like - Milly was starting to sound like Dora ...

This sounds like a great show. I always loved the Borrowers as a child and my own kids have been enjoying reading the books too. Dora is the favourite show for two of my girls - the worrying thing is that even I am starting to say some of her lines!

Can so relate to that. I must look up whether Dora calls her mum 'muma' because I have no idea where that has appeared from!
I will put a photo up that my dad and the kids played around with on the computer - they shrunk photos of people and placed them in their kitchen. Too cute! :)
There are some great BBC versions of the Borrowers ...
