Puddle scooting

Puddle scooting

One of my children’s favourite activity, is jumping in puddles. At the weekend, daddy was away and we ‘really‘ needed to get out of the house, even in the rain! So, on went the wellies and coats. Two of my kids wanted to take scooters, so I thought, fine.

We walked/scooted through the park, unfortunately unable to play on the equipment, it was too wet. There were loads of puddles to jump in, splash in, get wet in. They all had such a great time.

  1. Puddles seem to be magical dont they? Little z will run towards them even if he doesn’t have wellies on.

    • Yeah, I think puddles have some kind of magnetism in them for children!

    • It’s great fun

  2. Yeh for puddles! They are great fun. Long may it last. Clothes can always go straight in the wash when they get home. #CountryKids

    • So true!

  3. What great messy fun, they looked like they had a fab time scooting through the leafy puddles. Thanks for linking up and sharing their outdoor fun with Country Kids.

    • They really enjoyed it :)

    • Yeh, it’s great isn’t it !

    • Yes, it’s all great :)

  4. Looks like great fun! We do lots of puddle jumping.. But combining puddles with his scooter would be brilliant fun for Mushroom. We are looking through #countrykids posts together and he likes your pics :-)

    • Thank you. Give scooting through puddles a go, it’s great!

    • It is great fun :)

  5. Puddle scooting is one of my kids favourite sports after a rainfall!

    • I hadn’t thought of it before, so glad we gave it a go!

  6. Puddles, wellies and scooters – sounds like the ingredients for a perfect outing!

    • It was, if a little messy! (But hey, that’s what the washing machine is for)

  7. My kids love their scooters. My son has got a stunt scooter now, sometimes I can’t bear to watch him when he’s doing one of his tricks!

    • Ooh, a stunt scooter, that sounds like fun (though a little scary for the parent)!
