Country Kids 11th August 2018

Welcome back to another week of Country Kids. We've been a little under the weather here having contracted a cold that does not want to budge! Only the hubby has managed to steer clear of it. Despite this the girls have been keen about running into the garden and show no signs of wanting to rest. 

Country Kids is the original outdoor family fun linky designed to:

“Encourage family fun outdoors, in an age where technology and screens are such a draw to a sedentary indoor life”

Guidelines for joining in:

• Post must be predominantly outdoors such as in the garden, the park, the woods or the beach with crafting, learning, exploring or playing.
• Both countryside and urban outdoor adventures are welcome.
• Unheated covered areas like a barn or tent count as outdoors.
• Please comment on the host posts and a minimum of 2 others of your choice.
• If you use #CountryKids when commenting the post owner will know where you found them and hopefully come back to visit your post.
• Please add the badge so that others know where they can link up.
• Linked posts should be written and made live within the last 2 months. I understand sometimes you need to do catch up posts and write about something from a couple of months ago but the publish date should be within 2 months.
• There is no restriction on the number of posts that can be linked up, however please be sensible, if you have more than 3 consider linking over a few weeks.
• The linky opens at 00:00 on Saturday and closes at 00:00 on Thursday.

Favourite Posts

My favourite post was from MotherGeek who sounds like she really cares and knows her child well. Also the great outdoors should be a place that is enjoyed by everyone.

Louise's favourite post was from The Next Best Thing to Mummy who shared some useful tips on things to think about when getting a child their first pony.
