Polar Bears Need Their Own Bowl
We’ve been talking a lot about the big white cuddly things at our pad. Nice to see that they may get a place to play for more than a day.

And on this site you can do something educational, and keep playing games (that is until your screen time runs out!):

Seven Great Places To Go
For now we just have to put them on the To Do List, but wouldn’t it be great if we had a transpoder to take us there right now. Or a Tardis. I guess we will have to settle for a virtual 360 degree tour of Seven Wonders
