Let kids be kids linky 18/2/14
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 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!
Thank you to all you lovely linkers last week, as always you have given me great inspiration. I loved the small world winter olympics play at Princess and the Grapie, the lovely tweet love and planet cards at Over there to here and the fab list of outdoor activities at Mommy loves trees.
We had some fun last week too, with the weather getting more difficult to get out, we made snow indoors and loved our messy play session. We also enjoyed lots of games of musical letters, which is fantastic for learning, exercise and fun and whilst trying desperately to embrace this horrid weather, we made a rain gauge.
I have started a new pinterest account for let kids be kids and have set up a let kids be kids linky board, please follow it here as I will be pinning posts there.
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.
If you like this blog I would love a nomination for the MAD Blog awards, maybe Best New Blog? or Best MAD Blog for Family Fun?
Joining in this week. Feels like ages. Plenty of non-tech time, just no time to report it! Looking forward to visiting and seeing what everyone else is up to.
Fab, thank you. I’ve missed reading your posts. It can be difficult writing up everything you do x
Just linked a nice little cooking session the children had at the week-end. Mel
