It’s Playtime [10]: Summer Time Fun!

June 16, 2011 by Anna Ranson

This week I am featuring some lovely ideas for Summer time play and fun outside.

I absolutely adore this impromptu lemonade stand that My Kids Make set up for the construction workers on their street! What a generous idea and so much fun too.

Having Fun at Home linked up a wonderful idea and step by step guide to making bubble snakes! Who knew?! Looks like terrific good fun and I know my girls will love it.
And she may be a co-host on this link up, but I just can’t resist mentioning the gorgeous wind chimes that Jamie from Hands on: As we Grow made from recycled tins with her little one. So original!

    we were thoroughly spoilt, weren’t we anna, by that seemingly never-ending run of gloriously sunny weather. it went on for weeks and weeks, didn’t it? where’s it gone?
    i love the lemonade stall! great way to teach kids about doing for others, sharing and thoughtfulness. i bet those workers appreciated it!
