A bit late in posting this, but yes... you guessed it... another day in the garden for us. Seems to be our life at the moment. But we were spotting bugs as we went - this one was a favourite, as the children absolutely loved the colours. We did try and identify and it appears … Continue reading 30 Days Wild – Day 9
Well it's been a long day... I didn't manage to get a photo of the 30 Days Wild activities in action... yes like most days at the moment we have been working in the garden. Desperately clearing the ground to try and ready it for the children's play area section. I'm ignoring the end 10 foot … Continue reading 30 Days Wild – Day 8
So... Ummmmmm.... Yeah.... Day 7. We enjoyed some time outdoors... We laughed and we tried to kill eachother... We had a go at the Da Vinci bridge. Turns out it's quite difficult, especially with a child that is incapable of understanding instructions I mean quite literally can't take them in), and one that is but … Continue reading 30 Days Wild – Day 7
Today we built a bee home, we didn't put it up yet, but we definitely built it. We were given it by one of the grandparents who'd been given it free with something ages ago, and just hadn't got a clue where we could put it (being in rentals, and not being able to make … Continue reading 30 Days Wild – Day 6
So today, I don't really have a photo of what we got up to... because no one wants a photo of my muddy feet... We spent some time with our feet in mud, feeling connected. However, I can say that we also bought and built a climbing dome, which is going to not only be … Continue reading 30 Days Wild: Day 5
On our little adventures, we have ended up at Brinton Park in Kidderminster. It's located just off centre in Kidderminster and as such would be walk-able (under a mile) from the train, or bus, station and is a fun place to meet friends for a picnic and walk. There's a vast green parkland area and … Continue reading Review: Brinton Park
The week leading up to our house purchase completion, I had booked me and the children a caravan at a Haven park, Devon Cliffs in Exmouth. I have been to this park many times since I was a child and watched the changes it has undergone, and in all honesty, I am not really a … Continue reading Review: Haven Devon Cliffs, Platinum Caravan
So, today... me and the two children woke up feeling sorry for ourselves (sneezy and sluggish). So it's been a bit of a slow starter. But we made some effort to clean and dress... and then after lunch took a stroll into town via the ducks and geese armed with birdseed. Very proud that the … Continue reading 30 Days Wild – Day 4
Day 3 was spent sorting the garden again. Soon their playhouse will be able to go up, the play area will be sorted and then we can get down to business on the outdoor kitchen and fire pit area before building our veg patch area for next year. Cannot see much past the huge comfier … Continue reading 30 Days Wild – Day 3
Knowing that the children really don't cope with busy, choatic, loud party scenarios when they are anxious we always have a celebration at home that allows them to still experience the "New Year thing". So we set them challenge activity bags, or envelopes, a bit similar to our advent thing, but this time purely about the … Continue reading NYE 2017
