Rolling down hills

June 6, 2012 by admin 6 Comments

I’m still at the stage where I look forward to school holidays. I love having Z at home with us all day long, but there is an expectation to make the days as fun filled as possible. In the past I thought this meant trips to theme parks and other expensive days out, but now I realise all the children want is to spend quality time with us. Time when we are not trying to simultaneously cook, read a book and play a game. Time when we can focus all our attention on them, and appreciate how amazingly wonderful and unique they each are.

This weekend, we went to a country park. Fancy slides and trains were abandoned for a hill, just a simple hill.

 

 

 

After this photo, lots of kids started copying mine, and soon the hill was full of children rolling down it.

I look at these photos and my heart fills with pride and love, for my three wonderful children, who appreciate the simple things, and for that I am grateful.

    Loved reading this. You are so right, kids just love having their parents doing things with them. How wonderful to hear 🙂

    Aw Emma what a lovely post and so true- I am a firm believer that you don’t need to spend a lot of money to have a good time- especially when they are little. x

    What fun! We took our kids out yesterday to a place with a fantastic grassy slope, and nothing was stopping my daughter from rolling down it again and again. My son tried to copy too, but we didn’t get as far as Daddy having a go!
