Creativity, the Great Outdoors and Being Featured #LittleLoves

Wow another week gone so quickly! We sure must be having fun hey? There's been lots of lovely things happening this week from a little Easter egg hunt at toddler group to being featured on fellow bloggers blogs. Delighting in the warm sunshine and getting creative. So without further a do here are my Little Loves for this week.

This week has seen me dipping into The Artful Parent by Jean Van’T Hul and I have thoroughly been inspired by it. There is a lot packed into this delightful book including what are the basics for creating with little ones, to how to store them and activities to try. This has led me to going through my own supplies and setting aside what the girls can create with.

I feel I've not watched much on Youtube or the tv this week. However, this clip stood out to me while reading Stone Cottage Adventures blog. It reminds me of the street performances that occur and reminds me that I’d like to visit Ireland where they have a huge busking festival once a year.

I switched on the radio in our bedroom for a change and listened to BBC’s Woman’s Hour which just happened to be on. It was interesting hearing from a fellow creative and learning about #GetCreative.

This brings me on to the toolbox I picked up at a carboot sale a summer or more ago. This is a great way in which to keep the supplies together and has handy compartments for keeping certain art supplies together. I also love the colours of this toolbox which shout out fun right? All manner of things are stored away in here such as chalk, crayons, glitter, glue and more. I tend to paint with acrylic and understand poster paint is better with little ones. So I'm now on the lookout for that. Here you can see some of the chalk has been used by mummy to create a rainbow while some of it has been used by eldest to create simple marks.

Not much too report on the clothing front other than thanks to the warm sunshine we've been treated to the  girls are getting into wearing summer dresses.  As for myself I've been putting a lot of youtube video on watch later particularly hauls and capsule wardrobes. The above photo was taken while we were out climbing a hill in Brightwell-cum-Sotwell.

The girls enjoyed a good Easter egg hunt at church. My post for Becky (Cuddle Fairy) The Happiness Series with Queen of Collage went live this week and my post on Camp Wilderness was particularly liked by the ladies over at Tried & Tested as well as Dawn from Rhyming With Wine.

What have you all been up to this week?
