A couple of hours on the beach

We have had some lovely weather her in the last few weeks. So when my daughter said she was going to go out somewhere with the four youngest I volunteered to go with them. So as she was going to have some help she suggested the beach park and then the beach.

Laugh when I go with my daughter, she drives a mini bus, too many children for a seven seater plus all that needs trailing with her and often an extra person. So she parks it in the bus park at the beach.

Firstly we went and played at the beach park.

Mimky loves to play on this and manages to push himself quite well.

Then we headed down onto the beach for a short while before we headed home. Minky would go in holding onto my hand but Dinky was for none of it. We did try to follow Bob all the way out to where he was but Minky changed his mind.

    1. hope to go on some adventures with them over the holidays, nice to be able to help out and to allow the older ones to do a few things they cant with the wee one along, allows for more adults if I go.

  2. How wonderful to have a play park and beach like this so close to home. I must say the grandchildren are really growing up now and it's lovely to see the twins really enjoying playing and exploring the beach. Some lovely photos to remember your day. I hope you have the lovely sun we have this weekend too?

    Thank you for sharing with me on #CountryKids

    1. They are growing up so quickly. Sadly on days like that the beach is busy and you need eyes in the back of your head.

  3. You can't go wrong with a trip to the beach, especially when it is a sandy one. We live close by but ours is pebbly and it is a real treat for the kids to make sand castles. Mich x #CountryKids

  6. I do love time on the beach. They seem to have found plenty to do. Even the play park would take some time to explore. #CountryKids
