Happy St Andrews day

Today is St Andrews day.

I managed to make a kilt for my youngest in time for nursery this morning. One of the teachers kindly gave me some tartan so I could make a kilt for him. I am really pleased with how it looked and my youngest son liked wearing it as well.

They made flags and did some Scottish dancing.

My eldest is going into Edinburgh to have a visit to the museum. Hopefully he will have fun there. It will be a good place for him to learn about Scottish history.

I think it is great that something is done about St Andrews day in the schools.

I do not remember learning anything about St Georges day when I was going to school when I lived in England.

I have started learning more about Scottish history. I think it is important that I learn about Scottish history so I can help my younglings as well.

I think I will have to take them to some interesting places next summer. Now that they are getting older it should be easier. If I go somewhere on the train they will travel for free as well.
