This weekend we picked up a toddler scooter for Nila from Argos - I didn’t actually realise they did little ones and as soon as I found it , I knew we had to get it .
Nila is definitely a ‘my sister has one so I have got to have one’ kind of girl :) , she is constantly trying to get on Alessia’s scooter and ride it , so I thought why not get her one of her own.
At the back of our house is actually a national trail. There are a few ways it leads to , plus you can follow it round in an almost circle and get home.
All five of us went out ,and it was definitely needed. We haven’t all been out together in such a long time . We took the trail that takes us back home but passes the ducks along the way - although they are very scary.
Alessia and Nila couldn’t run any faster pass them , they are a little vicious , but it makes us all giggle to see who can get pass them first. It’s actually the Canadian geese that are the scary ones , the others are fine , and cute as Nila says :)
Nila’s first time on her scooter was the most adorable thing. She couldn’t quit grasp the idea of moving it herself, I think somehow she thought she would stand on it and it just ‘go’. She did so well through and loves having a scooter like her sisters.
We got home and we’re all freezing and in desperate need of teas and hot chocolates. We had a lovely afternoon out and we really do need to start doing it more often :)
Sometimes all you need to do is get out in the fresh air! Nila looks like she is enjoying her scooter.
ReplyDeleteScootering is hard to master, she will soon be flying like she has always done it.
ReplyDeleteYou can’t beat a good walk for blowing off the cobwebs that gather over the festive period x x
How fab! And having such a lovely bit of green magic by your home, and yes I think as a child I wondered why my scooter didn't just move when I stood on it too :)
ReplyDeleteAwwww how can the ducks be scary?! :) Sounds like it was great family time together - getting out on a ramble is always great for bonding! Sim x
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, the little scooter is so cute! What a great family outing. Sometimes all you need is a simple walk to enjoy nature and family time!
ReplyDeleteEven though the weather has been horrid its always nice to get out as a family and enjoy the fresh air. Jealous you have a walking trail by your house.
ReplyDeleteMy Daughter used to love going out on her scooter, it is great to get out and have fun in the fresh air
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you had time out even though it was cold. I'm glad Nila loved her new scooter. Once she learns how to use it she'll wiz past those geese.
ReplyDeleteI think it's so nice that your youngest one could enjoy a scooter like her older sibling. Getting out in the fresh air is one of my favourite things too x
ReplyDeleteIt looks you had a lovely family day out in nature. Your girls look very happy with their scooters and I bet they enjoyed the hot chocolate after the trip.
ReplyDeleteCan't beat getting outside and enjoying some fresh air scootering about. Looks so much fun xx #ordinarymoments
ReplyDeleteSo lovely to get outdoors, especially whilst the weather holds. Getting the scooters out for the kids is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteWe really need to get out on the scooters more! Simply leaving the house and getting fresh air can be so lovely x
ReplyDeleteOutdoors is must for us too. Can't wait for spring and going for long walks. Great post.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great trip out with the scooters! We are always out and about but I can't wait for it to warm up now!
ReplyDeleteYou really can not beat a bit of fresh air, even when it is a bit nippy! I’m just jealous you live so close to a nature trail, nearest for me is a 45 minute drive away.
