We Play: Join Our Playful Party

The Get Outdoors challenge has been good for us and I thought today I would share a few images from our outdoor adventures. A big thank you to a dear friend Meek, the two photos above bottom right are from a lovely outdoor play date we enjoyed last week. I am a big believer in taking the indoors out and Meek had set up all sorts of wonderful playthings for our two little people to enjoy.

What have you been playing this week? Take a moment to link up to We Play, pop a link back to this post in your post and be inspired by visiting the other links in this week’s playful party…

We spend time playing and exploring outdoors every day! Part of our waddlee-ah-chaa philosophy is living life with our children "out in the world"!

Immy's grown up so much! And someone is a very talented facepainter. We've just ridden to school for the first time since getting my new bike, it was lots of fun to get into it again.

I love this! I didn't do any outdoor arts activities, but I will be sure to start contributing soon. Most the time we go to the park because we have a smallish yard. I never have let the kids take too many toys outside, but I see the point and will start implementing that soon. I think this week we will start with a tent and a bunch of play house toys for the kids!

We've been busy outside building more fairy houses, my recycle bin is almost empty, all the boxes and containers have been taken outside. :-)

I love the idea of bringing the kitchen/grocery play things outdoors. We need to be more creative in outdoor play. Thanks for the encouragement and for hosting this great link up.
