Summer Activities

UEFA Women’s EURO 2017

This year, the UEFA Women’s EURO 2017 tournament kicked off in Holland on the 16^th July and will continue until 6^th August. It is the perfect opportunity during the summer holidays to celebrate the game and get the children involved. Ms C loves a kick about in the garden but is reluctant to take it any further because none of her friends play football. However, with the UEFA Women’s EURO 2017 tournament underway in The Netherlands, this is a perfect opportunity to celebrate the game and inspire the children to get involved. Have you and your family been watching it? We’ve been supporting England and hope they can go all the way!

Countryfile Live 2016 with Blacks

Last Sunday, we went exploring at Countryfile Live 2016 at Blenheim Palace, thanks to Blacks for the tickets, who also sponsored Explore Britain at the show. This was our first time and if you haven’t been before, you might be wondering what’s in store. This event explores every aspect of the British countryside through exciting live arena shows, talks, hands-on activities, animal displays, farming in action and shopping with more than 600 food and craft producers and even a great British pub garden.

Change4Life 10 Minute Shake Ups

This summer, the Change4Life 10 Minute Shake Ups with Disney are back again to encourage children to get the 60 minutes of moderate to intense physical activity they need each day with fun 10 minute bursts of activity. If you remember last year, we were involved in the Inside Out 10 Minute Shake Ups where we received the Change4Life activity pack and wristband with timer. Both of my children were so excited with the activities and have been wearing their watch to time themselves!

Summer Activities A – Z: V, W, X, Y and Z

Can’t believe that autumn is almost finish and I am still trying to finish writing up my summer activities post! For these activities, I combined them all as they are quite hard to match the letters. This is what we did!

Summer Activities A – Z: U

I know that it is Autumn but I am struggling to write up these Summer Activities we did during summer. We are now on the letter U. We did struggle with this one for activities. This is what we did!

Summer Activities A – Z: T

I know Autumn is in full swing now but I’ve not long to go now with my Summer Activities A – Z! I started in July but have been playing catch-up since our holiday to Singapore. Here are the few T activities we did.

Summer Activities A – Z: S

Today we did our summer activities letter S. There were a whole list of activities and these are just a few of the selection.

Summer Activities A – Z: R

Welcome to my Summer Activities letter R. If you have been following my Summer Activities Pinterest board, you probably know that we have been busy trying to do one letter each day to enliven our summer break. However, we did put it on hold due to an overseas holiday, so we’re slowly catching up the letters.

Summer Activities A – Z: Q

Letter Q was quite a tricky one for Summer Activities! This is what we did together.

Summer Activities A – Z: P

We did quite a lot of things for the letter P and hope this gives you some inspiration for activities to do together with your children.

Summer Activities A – Z: O

This summer we have been very busy with a lot of activities including crafts and sports! For the letter O, we did a few summer activities while we were in Singapore!

Summer Activities A – Z: N

I can’t believe there’s only one week left before school restarts and we are only halfway through our Summer Activities. Today is the letter N.

Summer Activities A – Z: M

Yay! We are officially halfway there and we are taking the summer activities very slowly right now. Both children’s energy levels are unrelenting and it’s me who is struggling to keep up!

Summer Activities A – Z: L

We are almost halfway through the alphabet! It also means the summer will be over soon and both children will be back to school and I will be getting more time to do my own DIY projects.

Summer Activities A – Z: K

Both my children have run out of mojo for summer activities. Now all they want is to play board games and stay indoors. The weather has been somewhat unreliable these few days. It has been either too hot or it has been raining. So we took two days to do the letter K.
