23rd Jan 2014: A 3d pepper
I could have put a couple more contours around the front and the contours at the bottom should be inverted..
23rd Jan 2014: A 3d apple
In our Art + Board Games + Sharing Club this evening, we decided to continue with our 3d technique and look at some healthy foods. ‘Board’ got removed from the club’s title and club members disbanded as Dylan then decided he’d prefer to play on the Spanish MindSnacks app this week – as he “really needed to get to Level 7”.

9th Jan 2014: Fruit Friends for Potluck
Having almost forgotten about this lunchtime’s agreed potluck with some of our lovely PhD people, I ducked out to the shop and bought a few apples and plums (in keeping with my current focus on what I consume, of course). Guest Care Crew happened to have some cocktail stick flags which I deconstructed and, along with the grapes from my packed lunch, used to create these very global Fruit Friends – there just happened to be enough for one each! Contributions from others included Crackers and Hula Hoops – how apt 😉

AN APPLE FOR THE TEACHER

HEALTHY STUFF
“I can see healthy stuff.”
Age 5
It’s our kitchen. That’s the floor, with all of the tiles [along the bottom] and they’re the vegetables on the table.
They’re to remind me I need to have 5 portions of fruit and vegetables every day.
The long, sticky thing’s a cucumber; the pointy thing with a bush on top is a carrot; and the bushy thing with a stalk? Broccoli.
THE WONDERFUL TREE – A SOUTH AMERICAN MYTH
By Rosalind Kerven
“It was never seen again.”
Age 5
Mum: What did you have for lunch today?
Son: Pizza.
Mum: Did you eat it all?
Son: Except for the salad.
Mum: That again. You should try to eat some of it. What was for pudding?
Son: Fruit. Or crackers and butter. I had an apple. It didn’t taste like an apple though, so I didn’t eat it.
Mum: Why didn’t it taste like an apple?
Son: It was the wrong shape, y’know – not big enough? It was too small to be an apple really – it wasn’t ready.
My goals – Feb 2013
D: My goals are… to be a scientist. That’s you [in blue]; that’s me, with a potion. I’ve got a snack in one hand – it’s an apple – and some of the apple has got into the mixture there, in red. That’s fog, above it, and they’re drops that are coming out of the potion. If you get any of the drops on you, you get more eyes. You’ve got six eyes and I’ve got nine eyes. They’re more bottles for experiments at the bottom.
D: Amy made a noise at lunch today and made my water go up and spill everywhere! And my food all went up in the air and then it came back down and all landed back on the plate in the same place – it just went up, and then back down.
Me: So Amy made you jump when you were holding your fish and chips at lunchtime?
D: Yes.
Me: I bet you haven’t had many portions of fruit and vegetables today – what did you have with your fish and chips?
D: Ketchup.
Me: Ah. Is that all?
D: And one pea.
