Please can you join me in this week’s theme of Spinning!
We know how important it is to spend time with the boys – as a family, and individually, with each of them.
Getting outside, and being active, is also a top priority.
One of the advantages of changing schools is that we no longer need the car.
This gives us the opportunity on the way to go for a spin:
– on the bicycles
– on the scooters
This can help develop balance and co-ordination, as well as competitiveness (who can go fastest)
and unity (helping each other).
Even on skateboard
We also thought of other ways we could interpret going for a spin
We headed to the beach where we found a pole to spin around
and on the sand we did some spinning around on the spot
Our youngest loves spinning, and soon joined in too.
We made the football spin around too
And drew a football pitch in the sand
And then we thought about what other things spun around
And of course the wheels on the carriage for the donkey
because of course no trip to the beach would be complete without a ride
Love the going for a spin idea. I wonder if surfing a wave counts? That’s what our boys will be doing for their bank holiday monday (assuming the waves are good!) Great to have MotivationalMonday all outdoors, the getting out and active is perfect for Country Kids too so thank you for linking up.
I’m sure those waves will spin them around indeed – feel free to come back and link it up :O)
Thank you 🙂
Love the picture of you spinning hun, the boys look like they are having a great time x
Clever! Well done for finding so many ways to spin! I’ve added my little spinner 😉
Such a good idea – being active as a family is cool and fun 🙂
Great photos! Looks like you’re having fun. 🙂
This is a fantastic idea! Now I’ve got spinning in my head we must get out and give it a go! So many really good suggestions of how to!
I do not mind going back to my childhood to play these fun games, nice photos!

I love this post and had no idea May is Active Family Month! i’m actually doing a 5k in two weeks with my stepmother and I plan on having my toddler join us. I’m sure she’s not going to be able to run/jog/walk the whole way buy I will have a stroller on hand!
Oh best of luck with it – and that’s lovely to take your toddler :O)

My boys love to spin in circles…and they love “spinning” as they roll down hills.
I love all the different spinning, and the ride at the end looks fun
I love messing about with the kids outside, it’s so much fun 🙂
Great pictures and so many ideas.
