Derek showed us how the old washing machine worked.
We enjoyed using the stamps and ink pads.
We bought some lollies from the shop using old money called "sixpences".

We had fun using the old sewing machine.

Our Visit to Te Manawa


We visited Te Manawa today to see how our grandparents lived when they were our age. Our favourite part was cooking the toast and eating breakfast! The toaster we used wasn't like the one we have at home.
