Regular readers will know that we spent last weekend in Bewdley, staying with my brother and his wife. It was a lovely weekend, and Boo hasn’t stopped asking if we can go back there and stay again since!
My brother obviously knows his niece, as he had a great afternoon planned for us, which involved getting out into the fresh air. It had rained all morning, but luckily the sun came out for us after lunch, so we got out there.
We walked a fair old way alongside the river, which mean that Little Man’s pushchair took a bit of a beating with mud and leaves getting repeatedly stuck in the wheels, but we soldiered on, down muddy paths and across mole-hill-covered fields, until we reached the open expanse that my brother was looking for, right by the river, too. It was beautiful.
And then he got on to teaching Boo how to play Frisbee, and she was loving it!..
..while I looked after Little Man and provided him with snacks..
There ‘might’ have been a Frisbee to the face incident, but Boo soldiered on!, and Little Man’s pushchair ‘might’ have been hit a couple of times, though the child himself remained safe! These Frisbees are tricky to predict sometimes, you know! It was nice to see Boo playing something new and as you can imagine, she was running all over the place so it went some way to tiring her out for the day (though I’ve yet to find an activity that totally exhausts her – any ideas?!)
And after the fun and games? Off to the pub for a warm up and some cake 🙂
As you can see, we wrapped up warm and donned our wellies, as a change in the seasons isn’t going to stop us from having our outdoor fun!
How about you? Is the weather putting pay to some of your outings?
I used to love playing frisbee and what a gorgeous place to do it!
It was so picturesque – a lovely spot 🙂
Looks like a lovely place to visit! x
It is, with the added bonus of my brother being there!
Ooh, frisbee in the face. Well done Boo for persevering! It looks and sounds like a lovely weekend x
She’s pretty hardy! Thanks x
A lovely spot to learn Frisbee and a great way to burn off some energy. Glad everyone is OK after a few close encounters of the Frisbee kind!
We all made it through!! Thank you x
I’ve avoided frisbees since I injured my guide leader years and years ago 😀 Always a great idea to end a lovely walk with a pub and cake.
Oh dear – sounds serious..! Yes, no better way to end the afternoon 🙂
We love frisbees on the beach so long as it’s fairly quiet and not too windy. I haven’t been to Bewdley for such a long time, I need to make the effort. Well done for getting out and about in the cold
Oh yes, there was no-one to be seen so all was safe! Thanks – I find once we’re wrapped up, it’s fun to get out 🙂
Oh, it looks so beautiful there! Frisbee is great fun, but they are definitely a little unpredictable 🙂 Great way to spend an afternoon xx
Yes, I suppose so, though obviously I blame my family…!
Good on your brother! My nephew (who’s in college) taught my son how to throw a frisbee last summer – and he now loves throwing it whenever we’re near a big open space. (And frankly now rather good!) I find it’s a simple but fun thing for kids to do outdoors.
It is so simple and she loved it. A great idea of my brother’s – clever man!
A lovely afternoon having fun in the great outdoors. It’s great to have a large space to be able to play frisbee and not loose it. Thanks for linking up and sharing your fun with Country Kids.
It was a huge area, without a soul around – perfect frisbee area! Thanks for hosting x
Looks like a lovely spot! Isn’t it great when you come across the little things your children haven’t’ experienced and you get to see them having so much fun?! The weather isn’t stopping us getting out but my big baby bump is, we have to go very, very slow 🙂 I love the crisp days at this time of year when you can wrap up and get outside, your little man looks very cosy.
Oh yes, big bumps will definitely slow you down! And then if it’s cold and you can’t do your coat up over it – annoying! It is nice to explore new things together and she definitely liked it!
We’ve had a recent frisbee ring in the face here too! The mud didn’t stop us today – it tried to when the boy got stuck in it though! Your walk looked lovely.
Oh no – hope it wasn’t too bad and the injured party is recovered! It is great to get out, but that mud can be tricky!
Awww I just love the photos! Frisbee is amazing, I always forget how much I love it until we play again lol xx
So simple, but she just loved it. To be honest, being outside & playing with her aunt and uncle were all she needed, and the Frisbee just topped it off 🙂
Ah, frisbee a great fun childhood activity to learn….quite tricky though, mine haven’t mastered it yet. Beautiful area too.
Thanks for linking #LetKidsBeKids
Oh, it’s tricky, but running about after it is all part of the fun!
Just popping back from #LetKidsBeKids and just had to say that your response to my last comment did make me smile 🙂
It’s true! X
