In the last five days the girls have more fresh air than they have all month.....They haven't had to go far to get it either.....Every day this week they have played in the back yard.....Who needs fancy parks or days out!! hehehe
Monday it was raining and they played out....A bit of rain didn't stop them....They had their boots and coats on!!
Tuesday they were out and I overheard our neighbour saying they were playing too loudly.....Which annoyed me so much.....How do you play quietly on a scooter? I'll just remember that the next time his kid is playing outside at 10pm at night!! I didn't stop them in fact I told them to carry on!!
Wednesday the girls had fun with chalk which involved colouring the bricks in on the wall and of course hopscotch....
Thursday....More playing outside....I hardly saw them....They only came in for meals and were back out again....There was a funny moment....I thought the girls were banging something loudly so opened the back door and all I said was 'Stop the banging please'.....I heard a voice from over the wall say 'Sorry'.....It was my neighbour banging not my girls! Awkward!!
On Friday they played outside all day too....I was planning on an afternoon of baking which they said they wanted no part of....Playing was more important! I wasn't going to argue!
They've scooted...played with dolls...slid down the slide hundreds of times...ate lunch out there...jumped in puddles...had lots of fresh air and slept so much better on a night...Fantastic!!

ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteMy neighbours always make a point of telling me that they love hearing my children outside playing. Thank goodness, as they are out there so much of the time. Baking can wait. #CountryKids
ReplyDeleteYes the baking can wait....There will be plenty of rainy days for that x
DeleteSounds like they are having a wonderful time. So nice for the weather to clear up and be nice enough for outdoor fun.
ReplyDeleteIt does seem like the weather has taken a turn for the better! Hope it stays like this x
DeleteLove a bit of hopscotch :) #weekendbloghop x

Deleteso refreshing to have all that outdoor fun!
ReplyDelete:)
Deleteglad we mostly have other young families in our street so no-one complains about them being normal! glad yours have been enjoying the fresh air
ReplyDeleteWe have none in our street.....It's all old or really young people....
DeleteKids should be outside, all that fresh air is so good for them, and they can let off steam and make as much noise as they want to! My little one broke up yesterday and I intend to spend lots of time outside!

DeleteThis is what I love about the summer - the lie ins! haha when we are outdoors all day my boys sleep so so well
ReplyDeleteOhh yes! My girls are not getting up till about 9am....In for a shock when they go back to school x
DeleteThe girls love chalk drawing on our driveway, so nice we can be outside with out heavy jackets x
ReplyDeleteIt's so much fun x
DeleteAs you say they don't need to go far for some great fun and games outdoors, and all for free! Roll on the sunshine and more days like these, thanks for linking up and sharing with Country Kids.
ReplyDeleteIt's fantastic that they've been out all day everyday...
DeleteNow that's so refreshing to hear Kim,
ReplyDeleteI remember when I was young we went out early in the morning and only appeared home when called in for lunch and dinner and tried desperately to wrangle 'just another five minutes pleeeeeeeese' at the end of the day as the light faded.
I love to hear of children being outdoors.
It's lovely to think that they get on so well playing together too.
Enjoy your week xoxo
