Sunshine Sabbaths

So it's beautiful weather in my part of the UK. I know your shocked and surprised but its true. So I am thinking we don't get outside often what can we do outside on a church day. So here are some of my quick thoughts on sunshine activities. 

Church in the park

Lunch in the park 

Trip to the farm 

Trip to the zoo 

Visit an elderly member and sit with them in the garden

Get the kids together and play games outside 

Go to the beach 

Have a mini tent picnic

Train spotting 

Go for a walk

Fly kites 

Make kites and then fly them 

Bug finding 

Remember the sun is too hot for those more fragile so consider the fact kids and elderly need regular breaks. 

These are just done quick ideas. Stay safe have fun and have a brilliant weekend. 

Snow day continued

On Friday I wrote about what we would do on our snow days and I said I would report in with any extra suggestions. So we called those who might have needed extra help and then we played in the snow with our neighbours. It was a really great way to meet and talk with others.

After that it was lots of warm food a short cartoon and then nap time for the younger. So the older one and I made a paper tiger and then worked through one of his magazines reading stories and doing the activities. It was really good fun.

Later we had their cousins over for playtime and there was plenty of noise in the house as the kids enjoyed playing fire fighters.

Bath time and then bed. A very tiring day for mummy but well worth it to see all the smiling.

For mummy time it was on the phone to a few friends and family. Working on the children's books I am writing and then bed.

Today is a new day and we are off out to church. So lets see what today might hold. Be kind to others watch out for one another and have an awesome day.
