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 children to step away from the computers and screens for a while and go out, run around, use their imaginations and just have general basic FUN!

Last week was a slower blogging week for me, as hubby has been away. I have, however, spent a little bit of time thinking about the ‘screen-free day’ I would like to run in January. I will write about this soon, but if you would like to join me, in having a screen free day, getting back to basic childhood fun and then blog about how you get on and what you get up to, to help raise awareness, please let me know.

Thank you to all the great posts linking up last week, there were posts about animals enriching children’s childhood from More than a momma and We3three, the simple things in life for children via Mum of 2  and some great outdoor fun despite the weather, via Winegums and watermelons. It is great to hear about so many people having great fun with their children.

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.
