Let Kids Be Kids Linky 10/12/13
Welcome to let kids be kids linky.
This is a linky all about letting kids be kids, getting back to basics and having great childhood fun. We live in such a fast paced modern world with loads of technology and stresses round every corner, we need to remember to just ‘play’ and have fun, it’s healthy for us all (yes, that includes you parents!).
I originally set this linky up on my other website, but recently decided it needed an identity of its own, hence, this site was born and my mission to raise awareness of letting kids be kids started. Please join me in spreading the word for encouraging children to step away from the technology for a while and go out, run around, use their imaginations and just have general basic FUN!
What have you been up to this week, having any christmassy fun?
We have put up our decorations and we have made our christmas lanterns, which I will write about this week. I finally got round to writing up about our winter wonderland visit and our handprint christmas tree fun. I am now in the process of making angel wings for my girls to wear at their nursery nativity, keeping my fingers crossed they go well. Are you having to make costumes for school plays?
There was lots of fantastic inspiring posts linked up last week. There was some amazing christmas card writing going on at Mummy tries, some lovely christmas crafts at Elliebearbabi and some lovely christmas scented salt dough decorations at Broody me. I am going to have to have a try of some of these.
There’s not many rules, just link up your posts, old or new, about genuine childhood fun (of any age). It may be fun outdoors, jumping in puddles, nature hunts, riding bikes or making mud pies. Or it may be fun indoors with arts and crafts, making dens, cooking, messy play or reading. Or how about visiting a farm or fun at a fete. Or a discussion about kids growing up too fast, etc.
Whatever basic fun you have been having or discussing, link up and share your ideas, visit others to get inspiration, but most importantly, HAVE FUN!
This linky will open every Tuesday for 6 days, so there’s plenty of time to add your posts.
Please spread the word and grab my badge from my sidebar if possible.
If you tweet me your link (@karenattwinlife), I will happily retweet.












Hope the costume making is going well.

Just found this! Let Kids be Kids is a brilliant idea. Hope you don’t mind if I link up a couple of old posts, I’ve just gone back to teaching so no time to blog at the moment but my old blog was all about letting kids be kids… and I miss it! x
Great, please link up old posts, it’s the content that matters, not the date. Thanks for linking. Hope the teaching is going well and you get more time soon x
