So we have not been straying far from home and well all my outdoors posts are starting to look the same! One day the sun shines and I have my camera and I think to myself well the difference with this post at least will be the sunshine. The thing is admittedly once we got to the park the wee man took a b line towards the cafe. I can't say no to tea and cake now can I? Thankfully he found something they offered that interested him to get him back outside again. Nothing like a bit of chalk to get the creative juices going.
How fab is that basket of fat chalks? Absolutely nothing wrong with outdoor adventures close to home when you keep inspiring your toddler with lovely activities like this. Some great close up photography too. Loving it!
ReplyDeleteYou do make me feel better with that comment! We don't always have the car to go further afield and I worry he is getting a bit bored of our local park.
DeleteAaww, he looks so cute and I love his pic. Looks like he is drawing the sun :)
ReplyDeleteTeehee I got to get my creative juices flowing as well :)
DeleteChalk drawing is a brilliant way to spend some time x
ReplyDeleteYes I think we may have to invest in some of our own.
DeleteWe love chalk drawing! :D x

We went back again just today and he was asking to do it! I think we have found a new activity to keep us busy!
DeleteHow nice that the cafe has chalk. Such a fun way to enjoy a little sunshine.
ReplyDeleteThis cafe really has a lot to offer to the children! Ever in Glasgow and at Kelvingrove park I would recommend it!
DeleteI love that little basket. Chalk is great for simple play outdoors, and it doesn't matter how old you are!
ReplyDeleteSome really artistic people around Glasgow. We just took advantage! I LOVED just as much as he did really. Great for something to do together.
DeleteI think you have a budding little artist there. Such a brilliant idea too!
ReplyDeleteMy mini Picasso I think!
DeleteBig fat pavement chalk is a brilliant outdoors pastime and he looks like he's really engrossed in his art.
ReplyDeleteHe has really taken to it. We have to get some of our own.
DeleteLove it! My boys were out with the sidewalk (!) chalk today! Great way to get them outside :) #CountryKids
ReplyDeleteThe great thing is you can use them anywhere!
DeleteLove this you remind me if my childhood. I must take the girls out to draw with chalk they would love it
ReplyDeleteAwww I hope it is good memories. A really easy and great activity.
DeleteThanks for reminding me of a great activity! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome :)
DeleteThat is a pretty fab activity, I can't get The Boy to draw on the patio as he thinks it's messy! ARGHH! I shall try again, once we have a dry patio (which is constantly flooded lately due to rain, or snow, or leaky drains!)
ReplyDeleteNipping over from the Country Kids linky.
The chalk does get everywhere! I hope we get some sunshine soon!
Deletethis is on my list of activities to do - just need to buy some chalk first and i keep forgetting! he has drawn some fab chalk designs! x
ReplyDeleteYou can find the chalk really cheap as well which is great! ahmm those designs are technically mine but I guess he helped :)
