We hope you forgot about the DIY jobs planned for the long Easter Bank Holiday weekend and made the most of those BIG skies and wonderful open spaces.
This family thought it would be a 'fun' idea to avoid the crowds and traffic jams, stay in our own little outdoor space and maybe do a little weeding.
Five hours and two wheelbarrow loads of weeds later (I kid you not), and that's the garden weed free.....well, for another few weeks!!!! Did I mention the broken nails, burnt shoulders and broken back? #makingmemories #familytime #school holidays #gardengames #gardeningisgoodforyou
Remember those long summer days with friends - climbing trees, building a den, skimming stones at the water's edge and making daisy chains in the garden or park? Ahhhh, now those were happy childhood memories!
Children don’t remember their best day of TV! Looking back at your childhood, sitting and playing a video game or watching television certainly isn’t what you reminisce about. And while times have changed from the sepia-tinged recollections of our youth, children today still love nothing more than getting active in the fresh air. But we certainly do remember all the fun and adventure of playing outside with friends and family!
Traditional Garden Games' eclectic range of outdoor games can not only help promote a healthier lifestyle but can also recreate the fun and adventure of playing outside with friends and family. They're even a great way to provide a digital detox - even if it's for an hour or two! So this Spring and Summer, start making happy childhood memories and keep everyone entertained with Traditional Garden Games.
