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 so much technology and stresses round every corner, we often need to be reminded to just ‘play’ and have fun, it’s healthy for us all (yes, that includes you parents!).
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!
Last week I loved these homemade rockets from the recycling at Multicrafting mummy and the treasure hunt idea from Eco-Gites of Lenault was great, I always like different ideas for nature treasure hunts. There was also an interesting nature/nurture debate over at Intrepid misadventurer.
This week we have been making lots of fathers day cards, so if you need some ideas for simple cards to make daddy, take a look here. We are very much looking forward to our holiday to Center Parcs this weekend, the children are so excited, we can’t wait!
Have you entered the competition for your chance to win a break to Center parcs? There is still time, take a look.
There’s not many rules, just link up your posts (screen free), 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 children 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 and comment on as many as you can to give each other encouragement and support, 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 if possible from my sidebar.
