Wombat Stew!

Firstly I would like to thank my very good friend who sent us the book 'Wombat Stew' a few years ago. We have enjoyed this story time and time again.

Today, after reading the book again we decided to pretend we were Dingo and make our own Wombat Stew, However, we were clever Dingo's and did not take the advice of Wombat's friends!

I asked the children to take a look in the fridge to find some things we could put in our stew they put in some onions, carrots, swede, celery, potatos, and for 'wombat' we used slice. the children done absolutely everything to make their stew I didn't help much at all. they even chopped the celery and slice themselves and put all the ingredients into the pot.

They had so much fun making their wombat stew but as dinner time approached my middle child said 'I'm not eating that!' I replied 'but Dingo tried the stew he made you've got to' she said 'I don't like to eat wombat' I had to explain to her we weren't using actual wombat that the meat we were using was the same meat she eats for lunch at her grandas every sunday and with that she tried the stew and you can see from the picture they both enjoyed it. The eldest child even asked for seconds!

and we continued to chant:
Wombat Stew, Wombat Stew, Gooey, Brewy, Yummy, Chewy, Wombat Stew!
